The Marc Denson Scholarship is awarded annually by the Texas Parking and Transportation Association to a student worthy and that embodies the spirit of the scholarship’s namesake, Marc Denson. Marc was a Parking Manager for the City of Corpus Christi for several years, where he made great strides in improving the parking system for residents and tourists. He was also a board member of TPTA before he lost a courageous battle with cancer.
Marc was determined and always strived to do the right thing. He never compromised his principles, even when the political or job repercussions were great. His persistence and passion were what made him achieve complex goals. His soft side was his caring and giving attitude, always willing to help anyone that asked. He was confident, trustworthy and respected. TPTA honors his spirit annually by helping a student who most closely embodies Marc’s character.
