In other Foundation news, a new memorial grant has been established through a generous contribution from AAPG past president, Honorary Member and past Foundation Chairman Larry Funkhouser and his wife, Jean Stoneburner Funkhouser, of Palo Alto.

The Roger W. Stoneburner Memorial Grant-in-Aid will provide a $1,000 grant annually to a deserving graduate student selected by the AAPG Grants-in-Aid Committee.  

Funkhouser also provided an additional contribution to the James E. Wilson Memorial Grant, which will be awarded in the amount of $500 beginning with the 2010 Grants-in-Aid Program.
