The Roy H. Yelton Scholarship Fund was
established to encourage new generations of youth
to the community service that was the hallmark of
the beloved Roy H. Yelton, founder of Yelton Fine
Jewelers. Roy was giving, compassionate and cared for
those around him in a genuine and profound manner.
This scholarship has been developed to honor Roy’s
memory and encourage a student who shares his desire
to help others.
When he lost his life in 2012, Zeke was a 17 year old
Lakota West student who was loved by all. His smile,
laughter and loving heart was contagious. He loved to
hang out with his friends and family. He also loved to
play video games and draw. He was very artistic, and
his presence would brighten your day. He always put
others before himself. The Ezekiel “Zeke” Stepaniak
Memorial Scholarship Fund will honor another Lakota
West student who shares similar qualities. The inaugural
scholarship award will be presented to a member of
Zeke’s senior class.
