ISAHU-Gregory Smith Memorial Insurance Scholarship
The ISAHU-Gregory Smith Memorial Insurance Scholarship was established in 2015 by the Illinois State Association of Health Underwriters (ISAHU) in memory of one of its colleagues, Gregory Smith. Gregory was a loving husband and father, a dedicated volunteer and a hard worker. He lived a life of service by always putting others' needs before his own. He was an agent for RW Garrett Insurance for 21 years, since 1994, and was formerly an agent for Travelers Insurance, from 1977 to 1994. For 37 years, he worked in health insurance, helping employers and individuals make good choices in their insurance programs. Gregory was a founding member of the Central Illinois Chapter of the National Association of Health Underwriters, where he twice served as president. He believed that the only way to make a difference was to get involved. This scholarship will help prepare the next generation of insurance professionals for the industry.
