Charles H., Jr. and Jane Eagle Diller Educational Scholarship

Mr. and Mrs. Diller grew up in south central Pennsylvania and are current residents of Silver Spring Township. Mr. Diller spent most of his professional career working for JLG Industries, Inc., a multi-billion dollar manufacturer of construction and industrial equipment.
