Michaeyla Nadeau Living History Scholarship

Michaeyla Nadeau, the 15-year-old granddaughter of unit member Glenn Dieters, passed away in 2019 after fighting cancer for five years. Her zest for life, courage, and strength was inspirational.

To honor Michaeyla’s life, the board of the 3^rd US Reenactors approved the creation of a Living History Memorial Scholarship at it's 2020 annual meeting.

“Be it resolved that the 3^rd US Reenactors, will establish an annual living history memorial scholarship in the amount of $500 to honor the memory of Michaeyla Nadeau. Her bravery and perseverance in the face of adversity exemplifies the spirit of the soldiers of the 3^rd US Infantry who fought during the Civil War. Also, be it known, that this scholarship will serve as a resource for future generations of young adults committed to honoring her memory as well as the soldiers of the 3^rd US and the families that supported them".
