Dylan LaMere Memorial Scholarship

This scholarship is in memory of Dylan LaMere. Dylan was a senior at UW-Platteville in Mechanical Engineering. He was to graduate in May 2021. His life was taken way too soon. This scholarship is a way to carry on Dylan’s legacy as a Pioneer forever.

Dylan, better known as “Pickle”, was someone who enjoyed life. He had a positive impact on all. When he walked into a room, people knew it. His bright smile and distinctive laugh were contagious. Dylan’s genuinely kind, helpful, and positive soul exemplified who he was as a person. His hard work and determination were noted whether on the football or lacrosse fields, within his academics, or at any of his numerous jobs. His passion, when he wasn’t found gaming, was playing Lacrosse with his UW-Platteville club team. Being number 3 in a clan of 4 children, Dylan enjoyed spending time with his siblings; camping, fishing, and hunting. He was an incredible marksman. Even though Dylan was a young man with very few words, his actions spoke very loudly.
