Laredo College honors founder of Education Foundation with memorial bench

LAREDO, Tex. (KGNS) – Laredo College is remembering Millicent Slaughter, one of the founders of the LC Education Foundation, a year after she passed away.

Slaughter worked at the college for 14 years and retired as the director of donor relations and special projects.

To honor her, the college placed a bench near the Fort McIntosh Private David Barkley Cantu Veterans Memorial Chapel.

The bench reads “Always Forward,” a phrase that shows Slaughter’s positive spirit and care for others.

She died last year at the age of 79.
