Ruthie Diffenderfer Memorial Scholarship

This endowed scholarship was established by Foundation Board member Dennis Diffenderfer in memory of his beloved wife Ruthie. Ruthie was a very dedicated and exceptional Kindergarten and 1st grade teacher in the Norwin School District. She was an extraordinary daughter, wife, mother, sister, friend, aunt teacher, neighbor, cousin, colleague, volunteer, and most importantly an incredible person of faith. Ruthie was a staunch advocate of Westmoreland’s Culinary Arts department and students, never missing one Chefs’ Table dinner.
