Congratulations to our 2026 Lauterbach Memorial Scholarship recipients -- Abigail Mott and Trinity Juries!

Kenneth and Maureen Lauterbach were long-time residents of Cedar Falls who were active in the community and members of St. Patrick Catholic Church. One of Maureen’s dreams was to graduate from college, but she was never in a position to do so. It is the Lauterbach’s hope that these scholarships help others achieve their own dreams. Congratulations Abigail and Trinity!
