Bill Held Memorial Scholarship
$1000 scholarship award
The Bill Held Memorial Scholarship Fund has been initially established by the immediate family and numerous
friends of Bill Held after his untimely death in late 2006. Bill was a three-sport letterman at RHS and obtained a
Bachelor’s Degree from CSU. He was one of the founding members of the RHS Alumni Association and was
instrumental in promoting, fund raising and generally “doing whatever it takes” to move the organization
forward.
Bill had a special place in his heart for Roosevelt High School, married a fellow RHS graduate and had a son that
graduated from RHS as a 2nd generation alumni in 2001. Bill was active in the RHS booster club and followed
RHS sports throughout his life.
