This scholarship honors the late Ronald E. Thomas for his local and national contributions to the credit union movement. Thomas, who passed away in 2002, was a board member of the Credit Union for more than 65 years. Thomas was a forward thinker, an optimist, a successful visionary recognized for who he was, which led us to this year’s topic:
