Continuing the Legacy through Matthew's Scholarship

Liberty University means so very much to both my husband and me. My life changed completely after the death of our son, Matthew. After a year of not being able to function more than getting up and getting dressed, I came to work as a receptionist in Dr. Falwell's office. I got to know Dr. Falwell, his family, and so many wonderful people at Liberty. They ministered to me and surrounded me with love. I believe with all my heart that God picked me up and set me down outside Jerry Falwell's office and my life has not been the same since. When I was growing up in the coal fields of West Virginia I never dreamed that I would be able to go to college much less become a professor. Liberty is a light in this dark world. The mission that Dr. Falwell began is being continued through his son. Mike and I are so very grateful for this university and for the Falwell family. We thank the Lord for being able to honor our son's memory through a scholarship in his name. Mike & Janet Brown
