A generation after tragedy, family’s last award honors daughter’s legacy Sophie Zhang and Allison Ma May 29, 2025
![Stanford professor Frederic Luskin holds a picture of his daughter, Anna Luskin, in her Paly softball uniform. According to Prof. Luskin, the Anna Rose Luskin Memorial Award is being given out for the final time this year because he feels it has fulfilled its purpose. “Nothing can replace my own child,” he said. “Anna was an absolutely wonderful, delightful human being. And life moves on. So the 20 years give or take of this award was a lovely way to honor a lovely young human being, and for me now, 20 years after [Anna’s] high school [graduation], it's enough.”](https://palyvoice.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/IMG_2536-1200x800.jpg)
