A Plan for the Future A longtime educator and former Marine, Nola Casey traveled the world, but her heart remained in Oklahoma with Mason High School. Nola believed in the importance of education, and before her death she created a plan in her will to share those values with others. By gifting her estate to the Oklahoma City Community Foundation, she created a scholarship fund to help students graduating from Mason High School attend college. “The Nola Casey Scholarship is making my dream of graduating college debt-free possible,” said Garret Crawford, a recipient of the Nola Casey Scholarship.
