He was a business major at what was Micronesian Occupational College (MOC), which is today the Palau Community College (PCC). He epitomized the ideals of Rotary, especially that of “Service Above Self” in everything he did.When he passed away in 2001, the Rotary Club of Palau established the Dave Williams Scholarship for a 2nd-year PCC student, with a priority being to a business major.Since the scholarship was established, a deserving student has been a recipient of this scholarship in the amount of $500 to help defray costs of attending secondary school here. The Rotary Club is especially grateful to the Palau National Scholarship Board for its annual assistance with screening and evaluation applications.The DW Scholarship is one of many activities and projects of the Rotary Club of Palau and is funded in part by proceeds from the annual Rotary Fishing Derby.
