Scholarship to honor memory of trailblazing councilwoman

The News Virginian (http://bit.ly/2bSJTPo ) reports that the Rita S. Wilson Memorial Scholarship will be available to high school seniors and, like Wilson herself, working adults who want to pursue a college degree.

Wilson, who worked as a social worker for the state of Virginia for almost three decades, died in Richmond on April 18 at the age of 75.
