The Petrillo Family Establishes Art Award
Mr. and Mrs. Orlando Petrillo of Elyria Ohio, established the Shelley C. Petrillo Scholarship in 1984 in memory of their daughter, Shelley. The scholarship first was awarded in 1985 with preference given to a junior student majoring in art. Today, the scholarship supports awards for a junior and a senior student majoring in the department of art & design.
Shelley C. Petrillo attended Ohio Northern, majoring in art, from 1967-71. Shelley may be especially remembered for her singing and playing of the guitar. She passed away in 1980.
