Marla Madden McDougall Scholarship Fund

Marla was a beautiful soul and had a smile that could light up the room. She was a devoted mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. She will always be remembered for her vibrant personality and her huge heart. Marla made friends every place she went, and most importantly, she stayed connected to many of them for over 50 years. 

As the oldest of seven children, she set the bar high, while paving the way for her younger siblings in her hometown of Swampscott. This legacy was strengthened by her son Jake, and all that they both contributed to the community. Her impact on people's lives and the memories created will last forever. 

To honor her memory, and to continue her legacy, our family has established the Marla Madden McDougall Scholarship Fund. This Fund will bestow scholarships to graduating seniors of Swampscott High School.
