Federated member Motown Automotive announces the creation of the Amie J. Litzinger M.D. Class of 2013 Endowed Scholarship Fund at the University of Toledo. The scholarship is named in memory of the daughter of Tom Litzinger, the company’s longtime director of sales and marketing. Amie Litzinger passed away on January 1 of this year at the age of 27 due to complications from a genetic heart disease known as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

“The University of Toledo College of Medicine and Life Sciences Class of 2013 lost a respected colleague and a trusted friend when Amie Litzinger passed away on New Year’s Day 2013. Her passing has left a huge void and immense sadness in many hearts,” said Dr. Jeffrey P. Gold, chancellor and executive vice president for health affairs and dean of the college of medicine and life sciences at the University of Toledo. “In honor of Amie’s memory and her values of being a wise, caring and giving person, the Amie J. Litzinger M.D. Class of 2013 Endowed Scholarship Fund has been created.”

The goal and purpose of the scholarship fund is to offer a worthy recipient the opportunity to attend the University of Toledo School of Medicine and Life Sciences.
