When he passed away in 2009, his family made a donation to the James A. Huckaba Scholarship Fund for excellent graduate students at the University of Missouri-Columbia who specialize in Algebra. I was the winner of this prize. http://www.columbiatribune.com/obituaries/james-huckaba/article_edd1715d-02bb-58b6-8871-fd8f9726fff6.html
