Jerry Curran Memorial Scholarship

On January 5th, 2022, Jerry Curran passed away from a long battle with sarcoidosis after a lung transplant. He was only 55 years old. Jerry grew up in the Northeast section of Philadelphia. He attended Saint Bernard School and Father Judge High School. He was an All Catholic and All State defensive end during his time at Father Judge.
