“That
darned Ooney Gagen is at it again! Linfield received an incredibly generous
gift in the area of $20,000 to support Linfield Athletics from none other than
Ooney Gagen,” said Debbie Harmon Ferry, special assistant to Linfield College’s
president.
In
email on Feb. 7, 2020, Debbie said, “We have shared the news with Athletic
Director Garry Killgore who is over the moon that the Ooney Gagen Endowment for
the Support of Athletics continues to grow. Gifts like that will help Killgore
to find the resources he needs for things like uniforms, gear, coaches’ salaries,
team travel and more.”
“I
think Paul Durham ’36 would be glad to know that his legacy is well protected
and supported by folks like Ooney. It’s a great day to be a Wildcat!,” said
Debbie.
