The Amy Plaisted Memorial Scholarship has been established by Jon Plaisted '77 in memory of Jon's soul mate, wife, and best friend, Amy. The scholarship was established to honor and celebrate Amy's lifetime career of being a nurse in the healthcare field. Even though Amy was not a graduate of Siena College, she emulated the Franciscan values of empathy, compassion, and respect every day she went to work. The scholarship will be awarded to students who have demonstrated financial need with the hope of creating more nurses like Amy in the future.
