Family and friends of one of the three RCMP officers killed in Moncton, Constable Doug Larche, creating a bursary fund with the Community Foundation.
A cheque for $3000 was presented as an initial deposit to the endow the fund.
Larche was originally from Saint John graduating from St. Mac’s in 1992 before joining the RCMP in February 2002.
Nathan Davis describes Doug as an amazing friend, father and family man. Davis says they wanted to honour him in a way that would be lasting in the community.
The endowment fund will provide one or more bursaries of $500 for graduates of St. Mac’s that plan on pursuing full time post secondary education and preference will be given students considering a career in law enforcement.
