CONGRATULATIONS TO SARAH AND CHRISTIAN!
The Tribute and Honor Foundation was proud to recognize 2026 Ben Farnan Scholarship recipients Sarah Ayiku and Christian Choi during a special presentation ceremony held Sunday afternoon at Glenwood Landing American Legion Post 336.
Sarah, a graduating senior from Glen Cove High School, will be entering the United States Army as a Combat Medic. Christian, a graduating senior from North Shore High School, has earned an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point, where he will begin his journey toward becoming an Army officer.
Each year, the Ben Farnan Scholarship honors outstanding young people who have chosen a path of service to our nation. The Foundation is grateful for the opportunity to recognize these remarkable students and their commitment to leadership, service, and country.
Special thanks to Korean War veteran Ben Farnan, whose legacy continues to inspire future generations. We also extend our sincere appreciation to the many veterans, families, friends, community leaders, elected officials, Foundation volunteers, and supporters who joined us for this memorable occasion.
The Foundation is especially grateful to The Regency at Glen Cove and the Stanco-Stone family for providing refreshments, and to Commander Bill Manfredonia and the members of Glenwood Landing American Legion Post 336 for hosting the event in collaboration with the Tribute and Honor Foundation.
Congratulations once again to Sarah and Christian, and to your families. Your community is proud of you, grateful for your commitment to service, and wishes you every success in the years ahead.
