Willard and Derek Stem Memorial Golf Tournament

Willard passed away on December 9, 2014, and Derek passed away on July 26, 2019. They both have been, and will continue to be sadly missed by their family and friends. The Stem Memorial Golf Tournament will be a way to celebrate and honor Willard & Derek’s lives.

Willard and Derek both had larger than life personalities, and were beloved in the communities that they served. They both dedicated their lives to helping others, Willard in the local and financial communities, and Derek in his unwavering commitment to those in long term recovery. Willard was aptly described by his best friend as having the ability to connect to people and to touch their lives like he’d never seen in anyone else before, while, for Derek, “Family was Everything.” He showed us every day how to play, laugh and love with all of our souls.

We, their family, are asking for your support and partnership to help to continue Willard & Derek's legacy. The proceeds generated from this tournament will be fully donated to the “Willard Stem Scholarship” at his alma mater of East Stroudsburg University.
