Woodfield Scholarship
"This is your life, right now; it doesn't wait for you to get back up on your feet."
-Alexa Woodfield
Alexa Rose Woodfield was a student at St. Pius X from Preschool-8th grade. She attended PowersCatholicHigh School where she was always willing to lend a helping hand. Alexa is survived by her Father, Mother, and Sister Candice. She is missed by all who knew and loved her.
"She was confident enough to introduce herself to students and acknowledged others by their name and made them feel important. She was known to help freshmen find their way around Powers when they needed direction. She had a gift of loving and that is exactly what she did. She loved her family more than anything; her Mother, Father and sister Candice. Today her memory lives on in our hearts and minds and the opportunity for her love of helping others is continuing."
-Trish Morrison Powers Catholic High School Teacher
