Christian Ministry.  Don loved life and lived it fully.  Married Louise in 1966, Donald 'Don' Ray and Louise had one daughter, Chastity and on grandson, Payton.  It is because of their love for their husband and father, Don's love of family and community, and his family's desire to continue good works in his name, that the Donald 'Don' Ray Memorial Scholarship Fund was created.

Each year, the Adams Central Scholarship Committee interviews all applicants to determine who will be presented with the $1,000 scholarship.  Presented to Adams Central students, scholarships from this fund are administered by the Adams Central Scholarship Committee. Students complete an ACCF traditional student application and submit it to the ACCF. The fundraising effort by this active committee is to be commended as they work each year to recognize more students.
