Dee Heflebower Nursing Scholarship

A nursing scholarship has been created with the Starved Rock Country Community Foundation to honor the late Dolores “Dee” Heflebower. She was the daughter of the late Anne Baker of Peru, wife of former Peru Mayor Don Baker.

The scholarship was created by John Heflebower of St. Helena, Cal., and Linda Gorr of Arlington Heights to honor their older sister, Dee. Beginning in 2025, it will award $3,000 annually to an Illinois Valley Community College nursing student planning to work in oncology.
