​Brian Patrick  McConnell Scholarship Foundation

Brian McConnell, a 1997 graduate of OLQM, was diagnosed with Osteo Sarcoma (bone cancer) in the spring of 2000 during his junior year at Brother Rice High School. He missed his senior year but was invited to participate in the graduation ceremonies where he was presented with "The Spirit" award by the faculty and staff. Brian continued his education by taking two classes at Brother Rice and two classes at Oakland Community College, and thus was awarded his high school diploma in the spring of 2002. 

Brian continued to fight his illness by taking chemotherapy treatments at William Beaumont Hospital and experimental inhaler treatments through the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

Brian's compassion, love for life, passion for sports and sense of humor never waned during his illness. He was able to dictate letters to friends and family as well as select gifts that were to be given after his death on April 1, 2003.

The Brian Patrick McConnell Scholarship Foundation was established in 2003 for the purpose of providing financial aid to a graduate of Our Lady Queen of Martyrs who will be attending Brother Rice High School. It was Brian's wish to establish a scholarship program that would link both schools that he attended.

Any donation toward the scholarship would be appreciated. All contributions are tax deductible. For more information regarding the foundation and events benefiting the foundation, go to The Brian McConnell Foundation
