The Robert J. Reeves IV Foundation Scholarship, along with The Men’s Association (TMA) is proud to participate in the Garden City High School scholarship program this spring. The one-time grant for $5,000 will be given to the student with an outgoing personality who is highly regarded by his or her classmates and teachers, participates in extracurricular activities and demonstrates strong leadership skills.
The scholarship was created in memory of Bobby Reeves, a member of Garden City High School’s Class of 1999. Bobby was a rare and colorful person; he was a gifted athlete, a strong performer in the classroom and was selected funniest person by his class. Upon graduation, Bobby went on to Dartmouth College, where he played football all four years. After college Bobby played Arena League Football before beginning a career on Wall Street.Â
Both in the classroom and on the field, Bobby was known for his work ethic, intelligence, and dedication. First and foremost, Bobby was a loyal friend to many and a beloved family member.
