GAMMA SIGMA PHI ALUMNI - Abilene Christian University

We lost a Kinsmen/Gamma Sig brother, Taylor Scott, this week from complications due to COVID. Taylor was from Merkel, TX and while attending ACU and playing football, he decided to pledge GSP in ‘95 Boar 🐗 Class. He was a friend to many and will be greatly missed.
Graveside services to celebrate his life and legacy will be held on Saturday, January 29th at 2:00pm at White Church Cemetery in Merkel, Texas. Services will be officiated by Pastor Chris Pope. Please keep his wife Diana and their family in your prayers. 🙏🏻

May he Rest In Peace as “We Believe” he has gone to a better place! ICB

From Don Garrett...
With Homecoming coming this weekend, it is time to update everyone on the progress of the Ed Allred Gamma Sigma Phi/Kinsmen Endowed Scholarship that was launched last year at the Homecoming breakfast. Because of a recent gift that receives a matching gift (thanks, Clay Rich) and another large gift received this past weekend (thanks, Jordan Maples), we are getting very close to the goal of $100,000. Including recent gifts, 129 GSP brothers have now given $86,711!! Please consider a gift before Homecoming, particularly if you have not made a gift. It is so easy to give on-line: www.acu.edu/gsp

Hope to see many Alumni there this weekend! ICB
