Facella Scholarship
Facella Scholarship
PAUL F. AND NORMA M. FACELLA MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP
Description:
Those who knew Paul and Norma Facella understood they were people who lived simply but purposefully. After serving in the Navy during WWII, Paul worked hard as a building contractor while Norma helped others in their neighborhood. They were good neighbors and caring people. Though neither attended college, Norma and Paul saved their money to learn from the world through various trips abroad. For 60 years they shared a devoted life together and a deep concern for the young people in Winthrop. When Paul died in February 2014---nearly two years after Norma had passed away---their careful financial planning and modest lifestyle had produced a sizable estate. Because they never had children of their own, their legacy now will build a future for students graduating from Winthrop High School. Though Winthrop High is a relatively small high school with graduating classes between 100 and 130, many of the students need financial assistance to attend the universities of their choice or to graduate from college without debt. Through a scholarship fund in their name, the Facella's pride in Winthrop will open doors for young people who might otherwise have been limited by resources.
