So Proud

I have to brag about Jake a little.

Some of you know his past, some of you don't.

Education hasn't been the easiest road he's traveled and he has worked so hard to get to where he's at.

He was recognized in March for all of his hard work and for how far he's come.  He received an award/scholarship from the Student Support Center at SUU.  Out of the over 100 students that are involved in the Student Support Center, the professors chose only four to recognize and Jake was one of them.

We are so proud of him and his accomplishments!

They held a luncheon to honor the recipients of the awards.

Here are a few pictures of the event:
