A Daughter Honors Her Father
Percival van Roden Harris '10
From Ann Harris, member of the BWW Society
Among my memories of my father, Percival van Roden Harris '10, are his fond reminiscences about his years at The Episcopal Academy. It is my belief that being enriched by the Episcopal experience inspired him to give of his many athletic and academic talents to the school.
I was not fully aware of the extent of his participation until I read The Tabula, Class of 1910. My friend James M. Earle, Class of 1942, kept telling me about how important my father had been during his years at Episcopal. This made me want to know more, and when I saw The Tabula and visited the campus, I realized the extent of my father's contributions.
Then I knew what I wanted to do. I could establish a scholarship to The Episcopal Academy. In so doing I could honor my father, and I could provide a student, who would otherwise be unable to benefit from the Episcopal experience, with the opportunity to do so.
This my father would love.
Editor's Note: Ann B. Harris, Lawrence C. Harris and the late Percival van Roden Harris, Jr. established the Percival van Roden Harris Scholarship Fund as a tribute to their father. The Fund will provide tuition assistance to students in need who participate in athletics, music, and community service—interests pursued by their father.
