Thank You for Your Service
NERVES President Jacob Rodman

As a token of appreciation for Jacob Rodman's leadership and unwavering commitment to our organization over his past two-year presidency, leadership was honored to present him with a hand-blown glass decanter featuring the NERVES logo, paired with two engraved bourbon glasses. Accompanying this set was a special bottle of bourbon, selected for Jacob to enjoy in the moments ahead as a reflection of all he has contributed.
