Belle Marquand Loustalet Memorial Nursing Scholarship

The Belle Marquand Loustalet Memorial Nursing Scholarship was established by her son Mike and his wife Marilynn in her memory. Belle was a nurse at Weld County General Hospital, now known as North Colorado Medical Center. She had an impressive career in nursing and was in fact one of the dignitaries chosen to participate in the groundbreaking ceremonies for the new hospital in 1951. (That building still comprises the central portion of the medical center today.) Belle’s long career in nursing included stints as a surgical nurse, private nurse, department supervisor, and even a county coroner’s assistant.
 
Eligible candidates for this scholarship must have been accepted into an accredited nursing program with plans to complete a bachelor’s or associate’s degree in nursing. The 2012 Belle Marquand Loustalet Memorial Nursing Scholarship will provide $1,500 for tuition.
