$500 SCHOLARSHIP BEING OFFERED TO ALL MISORVA MEMBERS & FAMILIES

The Patricia K. Jernberg Nursing Scholarship is being offered to MISORVA members and their families by the family of Patricia K Jernberg. The family is working to honor a beloved wife, mother and nurse who loved to ride snowmobiles. Patricia was both a dedicated nurse and avid snowmobiler. She was a critical care nurse at Spectrum Health in Grand Rapids, Michigan for 30 years. Patricia’s husband, Paul, tells us that along with her family and her faith, nursing and snowmobiling were her great loves. She and her husband were riders and association members and loved to attend the association events. Paul explained that he and their sons Scott and Wayne wanted to do something special to honor their wife and mother; this scholarship evolved from that. The Jernberg family offers this scholarship on a yearly basis to all MISORVA members.
