Caroline G. (Papoose) Turner Memorial Scholarship

Caroline Turner was very active in the West Ardmore community. She was instrumental in starting, promoting, and supporting neighborhood activities such as Boy and Girl Scouts, the “Soul Shack,” and the Ardmore “Steppers” marching group. Although she did not graduate high school, she maintained a life-long belief in the value of education and proved this by earning her GED late in her 50’s. It is the family’s hope that Mrs. Turner’s love of home, friends, and family will live on and continue to endure in our community through this award; and that it will remind each recipient that they are blessed and fortunate to call Lower Merion home!
