Nathan Robert Hertzog attended FLC from 1993-1998 when he graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree Cum Laude in Latin American Studies. During his years at FLC, Nathan was given opportunities, encouragement and inspiration to nurture his interest in Latin America. Not only did he make several trips to Mexico, but he also taught school in the village of San Rafael and traveled to Chiapas to research the Zapatista Movement. Nathan’s passion for the Mexican people, their culture, customs and family life could be seen in his face and gestures as he spoke with tremendous enthusiasm of his experiences in their country. His other two passions were art and the environment. Nathan spent much of his time at FLC working at the environmental center. He also signed up for every art class that he could fit into his schedule. Nathan intended to attend graduate school and again go to Mexico to learn, teach and otherwise help the people he admired. Unfortunately, those dreams did not come to fruition, as Nathan was killed in an automobile accident on Father’s Day 1999. It is his family’s wish that the recipient of the Nathan Robert Hertzog Memorial Scholarship exhibit the passion for life, learning and adventure that Nathan possessed.

He spent two years in the U.S. Navy at the end of World War II, during which time he met his wife of 53 years, Jewell Ludwig. Upon his return to civilian life, Jack worked in architecture; however, it wasn’t long before he gravitated back to ranching.

His business, along with ranching, kept him very busy until his retirement.

Callisto and Catherine (Katie) Luchini were children of immigrant families, the Austrian Luchinis and the Italian Procariones, respectively. Education was a priority in both families, as neither could speak or write English until their children went to school. The Luchinis and Procariones came to the United States because they knew education was available to all and was a way to eliminate the poverty in their lives. Katie and Callisto were married on November 19, 1927 in Allison, Colorado. They worked very hard as farmers and ranchers so as to establish themselves in the community. Two children, Marguerite and Lewis, were born of the marriage. The need for an education was always the central theme in the entire extended family. Even Grandmother Luchini pushed for education, especially for women, so that they could raise their families on their own if necessary. In honor of their parents, Marguerite Luchini Carlson and Lewis Luchini have established this book scholarship to provide assistance to qualified graduates from local area high schools.
