Hilton Education Foundation's New Scholarship!
Dr. Eric Cederstrom started working in the Hilton Health Care in 1990. He was a kind and compassionate physician, husband, father and member of the community. Dr. "C" was a trustworthy and loyal friend. His compassion and concern for his patients, colleagues and family provided an impetus for all who knew him to strive to do the same. He was an inspiration to us all.
Now for the first time in June 2009, the Hilton Education Foundation will be offering a $250 scholarship in his honor. Seniors who will graduate from Hilton High School and who are planning on postgraduate work in the health care field, with a grade point average of at least 3.2, may apply. Lin Cerderstrom administers this scholarship and will look for a senior who has tried consistently to set an example for others by conducting his/her life with the same insightfulness, caring and compassion that Dr. Cederstrom embodied and left as his legacy.
Those seniors wishing to apply may go to the Hilton Education Foundation's website, www.hiltoneducationfoundation.org, and download an application. All completed applications need to be turned in to the Hilton High School Guidance Department by May 1, 2009.
