~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | | Bill Druhan |
We are sad to announce the passing of one of our own - Bill Druhan - AEHS Class of 1965 and a 2006 Hall of Fame Inductee. Billy lost his battle with pancreatic cancer on Friday, June 24th. Bill is survived by his wife Tammy and children Joey and Maggie. A memorial service is scheduled for July 4th at 3:00 pm at the Purcellville Baptist Church (601 Yaxley Drive, Purcellville, Virginia). Fellowship with friends and family along with refreshments will be served at the church immediately following the service. The family suggests that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to the American Cancer Society or to the William T. Druhan, Jr. Memorial Soccer Scholarship  | | Bill Druhan, seated center, was team captain of the first soccer team at AEHS |
(donations can be mailed to Albert Einstein High School c/o Hall of Fame, Room 105, 11135 Newport Mill Road, Kensington, MD 20895 - memo line should indicate Druhan Scholarship). This Scholarship will be self-funded by donations only. Please Click Here to see the article which appeared in the Leesburg Today online newspaper which chronicles Bill's community involvement as a concerned citizen of the Town of Purcellville as well as serving as its Mayor for several years.  | | Bob Owens and Bill Druhan |
Bill was very aprecative of his being inducted into the first AEHS Hall of Fame class and showed it by his financial contributions as well as attending all functions of the Hall. Bill exhibited an example we can all try to live up to, he was dedicated to the mission of the Hall of Fame and was always willing to serve and offer his support when time permitted.
