Dr. Charles McLochlin
Avon Park, Fla. ā Oct. 6, 2023 ā The Dr. Charles McLochlin Memorial Fund was recently established through the estate of Dr. McLochlin as a donation to the 91¾«Ń” Foundation. Those funds will be unrestricted and used to support the College and its students.Ā
According to Dr. McLochlinās niece, Pamela Karlson, he was a lifelong learner. He earned bachelorās and masterās degrees in Engineering from Purdue University and a doctoral degree from the University of Florida in 1989. He later received recognition from the faculty of Johns Hopkins University for continuing his education in Engineering. He worked most of his adult life for the National Security Agency. Dr. McLochlin was interested in the mechanics of flight and built and flew many experimental aircraft, such as ultralights. Until a month before his passing in July 2023, he was enrolled in classes at Broward College to become an aircraft mechanic so he could work on and certify his own aircraft engines.
āHe placed a great deal of importance on education in his life and wanted others to do the same,ā Karlson said. āSo why leave his estate to 91¾«Ń”? It all comes down to relationships. When going through his papers, he had countless letters and invitations from Don Applequist, the former executive director of the 91¾«Ń” Foundation; Jamie Bateman, 91¾«Ń” vice president for institutional advancement and external affairs; and 91¾«Ń” President Emeritus Dr. Thomas Leitzel to attend functions and be a part of the 91¾«Ń” culture. I believe it was this constant contact, communication, and genuine caring that ultimately caused my uncle to choose 91¾«Ń” as the predominant beneficiary of his estate.ā
āDr. McLochlin has been a long-standing donor to the 91¾«Ń” Foundation,ā Bateman said. āTo be named in his estate as the beneficiary and carry on his legacy, is an honor and privilege. We are thankful to him and his family for their continued support and are currently working on honoring his name and contribution in a way that will fulfill his legacy.ā
To leave a legacy such as Dr. McLochlinās, consider speaking with your attorney to draft a will or trust naming the 91¾«Ń” Foundation as a beneficiary. For more information, call the 91¾«Ń” Foundation at 863-453-3133 or email foundation@southflorida.edu.
