About Merle and John Keefer and the Scholarship

The Keefer Scholarship is usually given annually to high school seniors in each of the Tri-State high schools who will be continuing their education.  It has been made available through the generosity of a faith commitment of John and Merle Keefer and the Han­cock Presbyterian Church (USA).  Hancock Church set aside a tithe of the mo­nies bequeathed to them in 1999 by John Keefer to establish a Scholarship Fund.

John and Merle Keefer had no children of their own, but had the heart, mind and faith commitment to do well for the children of the Tri-State community.  Merle Keefer was a fifth grade teacher at Hancock Elementary School.  She was a member St. Thomas Episcopal Church and served as Organist and a Sunday School Teacher.  She was active in the community library, and a member of the Hancock Historical Society.  John Keefer was a life-long member and elder of Hancock Presby­terian Church.  He was an employee of the former People's Bank, now F&M Bank, and a talented investor.  His investments have made pos­sible these gifts to the students of the Tri-State Community: Hancock, Berkeley Springs, and Southern Fulton High Schools.
