Brinson Williamson Memorial Scholarship
2013
The BRINSON WILLIAMSON MEMORIAL
SCHOLARSHIP was established in 2007 by Mrs.
Bobbie Hastings in loving memory of her grandson,
Brinson.
Brinson grew up in Rising Sun, Indiana and attended Rising
Sun schools. He loved to ride 4-wheelers, skateboard, and
snow board and READ anything he could get his hands on.
Brinson also loved music and played percussion in the Rising
Sun Middle School Band, Rising Sun High School Band and
Jazz Band. He taught himself how to play the guitar and
learned many songs. Brinson loved to get together with his
music making friends and hold jam sessions.
Besides music, Brinson loved old cars he called “muscle
cars”. On November 29, 2006, he lost his life in an
accident while working on his 1986 Camaro. Brinson had
just celebrated his 21st birthday on November 7th. He is
sorely missed by his family and friends.
The BRINSON WILLIAMSON MEMORIAL
SCHOLARSHIP has been established to assist in
funding the continuing education of a current year
Rising Sun High School graduating senior who has
been a band or music student or is pursuing an
education in the music field. Mrs. Hastings’ vision was
to create a scholarship in Brinson’s memory to benefit
a student who shares Brinson’s love of music. Mrs.
Hastings and her family hope Brinson’s memory will
live on through this wonderful endeavor.
