The Izzo Family Scholarship was setup by brother Carl Izzo.  The Izzo family is the only four generation family within Alpha Phi Delta.   Carl was a retired Fellow scientist for Westinghouse Research Labs and also worked post retirement as an industrial paint consultant.   He served his country in the United Sates Air Force.   He was a member of Mother of Sorrows Church, Murrysville, and an active 4th degree knight of the Knights of Columbus, Council 1480, serving as past Grand Knight.  He was very active with the Pennsylvania Railroad Technical and Historical Society and an avid model railroader.   He was also a choir director throughout his years for numerous churches in Western Pennsylvania and provided piano lessons to countless students.

Carl pledged the PSI chapter at Duquesne University in 1951, and was a member of the Pittsburg Alumni Club.  Carl was awarded our Adam DiVincenzo Award for Community Service by the Pittsburgh Alumni Club in 2014.   Carl was the the 2nd generation of 4 generations of Alpha Phi Delta brothers within the Izzo family as his father, his son and two grandsons are fraternity brothers.  A number of years ago Carl established and endowed the Izzo Family Scholarship with the Alpha Phi Delta Foundation. Carl was a fine brother and he will be missed by us all. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife, Kathryn Campbell Izzo; and his son, Carl P.  His full obituary can accessed at this link.
