Robert Jacob Rebitski Memorial Scholarship
In Loving Memory of Robert Jacob Rebitski, SHDHS Class of 2016
“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” — John 15:13
This scholarship honors the memory of Robert Rebitski, a 26-year-old SHDHS graduate who was wicked smart and lived with quiet strength, selfless love, and a deep appreciation for the everyday. He found joy in the ordinary and wasn’t afraid to be a little ornery—in the best way. He had an infectious smile and giggle.
Robert brought humor, grit, and determination to everything he did—especially when it came to caring for others. He would lay down his life for his brother or sister and lived out his Catholic faith through humility, service, and devotion to family. He thought outside the box—not just in business, where he boldly purchased and ran his father’s legacy company—but also in how he loved, solved problems, and made others feel seen and valued through his quiet acts of kindness. He earned the Boy Scouts’ highest honor of Eagle Scout and stayed true to the Scout Oath.
This scholarship reminds us that while Crusaders may come from different paths, we are united in our mission to serve, lead, and love well.
