We Can Do It! War poster by J. Howard Miller evoking the icon Rosie the Riveter
Thanks to all who have given to the scholarship — we just passed the $6000 mark! And almost 50 different people have given so far. It feels wonderful to see a scholarship that’s being built by all the people touched by Joan Iversen, a way for each of us to take what she gave us and to pay it forward.
Please consider joining all of us as we pay forward what Joan gave to each of us: donate now.
In Memory of Dr. Joan Iversen 
Dear Nancy, i am so happy this morning to find your website for your mom, and very touched to see how beautifully you have arranged it. I was so sad that we lost your mother too soon. She was a great inspiration to me, and i have wonderful memories of our early “Women’s Week” events at Oneonta– exhilarating and illuminating times! And i was always grateful too, for her and your father’s personal kindness to me and my kids in our early years in Oneonta. what a difference they, and all your family, made for us!
Thank you for all you are doing to keep her memory and influence strong.
Love, Charlotte
Charlotte, I remember how much my mom enjoyed those “Women’s Week” events, too. Those were wonderful years — we all enjoyed being a part of your lives. Thanks for “stopping by” the blog. If you feel inspired to write something up about one of those “Women’s Week” memories for this blog, I’d be honored to post it. You can send it to me on gmail — my user name there is smythnj or cut and paste it into this form: https://drjoaniversen.com/do-you-have-a-recollection-of-joan-iversen-to-share/
Hugs, Nancy
Dear Nancy, Wonderful to hear from you. I would love to write something about those early Women’s Week events– let’s see what I can come up with! I’m so glad you’re making this effort to fund the scholarship in Joan’s name. It will be a perfect memorial to her life’s work and her great spirit. Love, Charlotte
Thanks so much, Charlotte, I look forward to reading what you write. Love, Nancy
