The Thomas Bergheim Memorial Scholarship

Through the creation of The Thomas Bergheim Memorial Scholarship, Huber Technologies honors the lifework of their friend and colleague, Thomas Bergheim (1966-2018), who served the company faithfully as a Senior Field Service Specialist since 2009. Born in Cologne, Germany, Thomas was a respected and hardworking craftsman, a steady and dedicated employee and a good-hearted friend to many. Thomas always gave his best to his colleagues and its customers, having served HUBER in Germany for many years as an exclusive contractor before joining Huber Technologies stateside.
