Paul Miller and Larry Van Epps Welding Scholarship Endowment

This scholarship honors the life and legacy of two incredible human beings. Larry Van Epps, a devoted educator, outdoorsman, and community servant whose compassion shaped the lives of countless students. And Paul Miller, whose passion for welding became his vocation. He would give you the shirt off his back, or more accurately a part for your vehicle, and then spend hours helping you install it. Both men were the inspiration to creating this multi-family supported scholarship which supports individuals enrolled in the Welding program at Northwest College. Students who demonstrate determination, a strong work ethic, and a desire to build a meaningful career through skilled trades.
