J. Harry Hibshman, longtime president at Ephrata National Bank, created a lucrative scholarship fund in his will for seniors graduating from Ephrata High School. Hibshman, a lifelong bachelor who died in 1963 [PA death certificate notes 1964], directed that all of the yearly dividend payments from his stock holdings in the bank - which amounted to about 31 percent of all shares - be paid out every year in scholarships. The most recent graduating class (2017) received about $1 million. (Article appearing in the Lancaster Sunday LNP on Feb. 25, 2018 on page A-13 in section on "Interesting Facts about Ephrata".)
