Ottilia "Tillie" Sohn

Tillie Sohn established the Joseph P. Sohn Hotel/Motel/Food Service Management Specialist Scholarship in 1999 in memory of her late husband. Tillie worked in the family linen supply business until well into her 90’s. She was one of its founding partners in 1933 and following the death of her husband, Joe Sr., in 1972, Tillie served as President of Sohn Linen Service for 22 years. The Sohn Scholarship supports Lansing Community College students in business and management programs.
