SHEPHERDSTOWN, WV — A $222,000 gift from the estate of T. Guy Reynolds will benefit Shepherd University education students.
Martinsburg attorney Richard McCune, executor of Reynolds’ estate, presented the gift to the Shepherd University Foundation during its annual meeting September 15.
The money will be added to the Thomas Guy Reynolds, Jr., Scholarship fund, which is designated for students majoring in education who have financial need and have a 3.0 or better GPA.
“Mr. Reynolds was a remarkable man,” said Monica Lingenfelter, executive vice president of the Foundation. “He has been such a benefactor over the years and a great advocate for the value of a Shepherd education. His final legacy gift will increase the impact of his endowment and ensure that his name and generosity live on through the countless students who will receive his scholarship awards.”
