Kyle Akin Scholarship Fund

Kyle was a remarkable person who could brighten up any room with his smile and infectious laughter. He was well-known for his enormous bear hugs among his family and friends.

Kyle had a great passion for creating things with his hands. He loved spending time in the garage, working on rebuilding cars with his family. Instead of going to college after graduating in 2012, he decided to pursue his interests in skilled trades. He found immense satisfaction in developing his talents in this field and using them at Gem Plastics and Weyerhaeuser.

The Kyle Akin Scholarship Fund is a source of inspiration for those seeking to pursue a career in skilled trades. Kyle’s enthusiasm and passion for the field of industrial technologies are a testament to his character and spirit. Graduating seniors from Roscommon County schools can apply for the scholarship, which honors Kyle’s memory and his love for his craft.
