Julia Eleanor Dryden Stine/Hitchens-Dryden Memorial Scholarship Fund
Founded by daughter Alice Jean Stine for Frederick County Public School graduates studying at Salisbury University.
Julia D. Stine of Knoxville was born July 3, 1911. In 1930, she attended the Salisbury Normal School (now Salisbury State University), where she earned a degree in education. After returning to the area, she dedicated nearly 30 years to teaching in Frederick County elementary schools in Lander and Brunswick, while continuing her post-graduate education at Hood College, Shepherd College and University of Maryland. In keeping with Julia Stine’s career path, the Fund that bears her name awards scholarships to students who will attend Salisbury University to major in education, nursing, psychology, sociology, or social work.

Paul Luther Stine, Sr. of Knoxville worked for the Frederick County Board of Education for 38 years as a driver. He was a member of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Petersville. Mr. Stine was best known as a farmer, and the fund created in his memory by his daughter Alice Jean Stine captures his dedication to farming. The Paul L. Stine, Sr. Memorial Fund provides grants to nonprofit organizations promoting agriculture as a career, using agriculture or farm animals as learning tools for youth, working to save dogs and horses from being destroyed after their productive lives are over, or providing educational opportunities for youth involved in agriculture.
Founded by sister Alice Jean Stine for grants to nonprofit organizations providing for the rescue and well-being of horses.
Paul Luther Stine, Jr. was born on October 20, 1938, the son of Paul and Julia Stine. Growing up in Knoxville, he worked with his family in farming. He was a lifelong member of the Petersville Lutheran Chapel and enjoyed collecting horse-related items, miniature school buses, bells, key chains, and letter openers. Alice Jean Stine, who created The Paul Luther Stine, Jr. Memorial Fund to honor her brother’s memory, shares that Paul, though mentally challenged, “was a man of great strength who survived a difficult birth and lived a good and productive life with his parents and sister who cared for and about him.” The fund provides grants to nonprofit organizations providing for the rescue and well-being of horses to commemorate Paul’s love of animals.
Florence E. Stoner McDaniel College Scholarship Fund
Founded with a bequest from husband Frank G. Stoner for McDaniel College students.
Frank L. Stoner was born June 13, 1864 in Frederick, where he was raised and educated. He was a locally trained lawyer, who was admitted to the local bar association in 1885. That same year, Mr. Stoner was nominated and elected by the Democratic Party to the House of Delegates from Frederick County. He was not only a lawyer and delegate but also involved with several local banks: President of Farmers & Mechanics National Bank for 15 years, President of First National Bank of Mount Airy and Director of Woodsboro Savings Bank. Mr. Stoner’s wife Florence preceded him in death, and in his will he established The Florence E. Stoner Scholarship Fund in her memory to award scholarships to McDaniel College. Though he was well known throughout the community, Mr. Stoner created a lasting legacy in his wife’s name.

Sperry Storm was a well-known Frederick County musician whose mother inspired his musical talent with piano lessons at a young age. Mr. Storm and his brothers learned to play instruments from the string, reed, brass, and percussion families. He led a life completely dedicated to music, from teaching to playing it. He performed with various groups, including the Francis Scott Key Hotel trio, local dance bands, and an Evangelical Reformed Church group in Frederick. He taught thousands of students, first from a studio he opened in Frederick and later when he led the Frederick High School band, playing a pivotal part in expanding the school’s musical program. By his retirement in 1976, Mr. Storm had spent almost 50 years teaching privately and 35 years as a public school music educator. The Sperry L. Storm Memorial Scholarship Fund, founded to continue Mr. Storm’s legacy, awards scholarships for private music instructional lessons for students of Frederick County Public Schools attending kindergarten through 11th grade.
