nice young man. His<br />

humor and personality combined<br />

with his determination<br />

and work ethic make him a joy<br />

to have in class. He is often<br />

Joseph Osborn<br />

overlooked because he is very<br />

unassuming, yet he continues<br />

to perform well.”<br />

Joseph is planning to pursue a degree in<br />

engineering at an Ohio college or university.<br />

Joseph is the son of Brian and Lori Osborn<br />
