Larry Gubbels

Martin Gubbels speaks about his late father, University of Wyoming trustee Larry Gubbels, during a luncheon in his honor Thursday afternoon at the Marian H. Rochelle Gateway Center.

Larry Gubbels never went to college, but a new scholarship at the University of Wyoming named for the late UW trustee will help disabled students reap the benefits of higher education for years to come.

Larry Gubbels’ family announced a $50,000 endowment Thursday during a lunch and ceremony with the UW Board of Trustees. Each year, the endowment will fund two scholarships for individuals with physical disabilities.
