First Marion Boyd Scholarship Awarded

Published July 30, 2021

On July 29, the inaugural Marion Boyd Scholarship was awarded to Autum White. Autum is currently a Unit Clerk on 3D at The Medical Center at Bowling Green and is a second year Radiography student at Southcentral Kentucky Community and Technical College (SKYCTC). On hand to present the scholarship were: Sharon Gass, Marion’s daughter, along with Sharon’s husband, Mike, and their three daughters — Sarah, Ashley, and Brittany; Eddie Scott, Director of Radiological Services; and Connie Smith, President and CEO of Med Center Health.

The Marion Boyd Scholarship was established following Marion’s untimely death earlier this year. Contributions to the scholarship fund have come from friends, family, colleagues, and a generous matching gift from Med Center Health. Additionally, funding is made possible through a raffle for employees to win a chance to park in Marion’s parking spot for 3 months!

Marion was a devoted employee of The Medical Center at Bowling Green for more than 57 years. This scholarship will be presented annually to a Radiography student at SKYCTC, and will continue to celebrate and honor Marion’s legacy and memory.

Employees can purchase raffle tickets for Marion’s parking spot at MCHealth.Foundation/Marion. 100% of money raised goes to the Marion Boyd Scholarship Fund. Enter for your chance to park right outside the Diagnostic Imaging door!
