Prevallet in remembrance of their daughter. Though Pamela Anne’s limited abilities prevented her from participating in many things other children could enjoy\, it was clear in her short life that music was dear to her\, in particular the sound of hymns practiced at home by her mother\, a church organist. It is thus fitting that she be remembered in this way. It is also a way of supporting seminary students and encouraging church music and liturgical musical excellence. For many years Mr. Prevallet was chairman of the Seminary’s Board of Regents. His widow\, Martha\, has served as a church organist for 40 years\, and resides in Blytheville\, Arkansas. \nEligible applicants to the Prevallet Hymn Competition may apply through the Financial Aid Office. This year’s deadline for applying is Aug. 1\, 2026.
