Auburn police officer William Buechner Jr. died in the line of duty in 2019. But the memory of his community lives on through a memorial scholarship in his name for children of first responders.

Fundraising for the scholarship has been ongoing since Buechner’s death and Friday, the third round of scholarships were awarded to four students including Tallassee High School Class of 2025 Cadence Hill.
