The new Gary and Mary Moden Fund will be used to provide Annual funding to the Blackwater Ministerial Association and the Mountaintop Public Library.  The funding for the Blackwater Ministerial Association will be for food pantry needs.  The funding for the Mountaintop Public Library will be for building maintenance expenses.  The two organizations will each receive 50% of the annual distribution.

 

With the gracious support of Gary and Mary Moden, the Gary and Mary Moden Fund was created. Gary and Mary are both originally from Minnesota.  Gary received his BA and MA from Minnesota State University.  He received his PhD from the University of Missouri.  Mary received her BA degree from Lea College and BS degree from the University of Missouri and her graduate studies at Ohio University.  Gary spent his professional career working 47 years in higher education at 4 different institutions.  Most of his time at the University of Missouri (6 years) and Ohio University (37 years). Mary taught in public schools for over 30 years in Missouri and Ohio.  She had children from 1st grade to 8th grade and taught reading, English and social studies.  She also supervised student teachers for the Ohio University College of Education.

 

Gary and Mary Moden have 2 sons and 6 grandchildren.  They have owned property in Canaan Valley since 1987.  They originally owned in Deerfield Village and in 1998 they purchased a home in Timberline.  They moved to that house in 2007 as full time West Virginia residents.  The Modens are involved in several activities locally.  They are members of the Davis Memorial Presbyterian Church in Elkins, where Gary currently serves as an Elder.  Both Gary and Mary are active with the Friends of the Mountaintop Public Library.  Gary serves as the Treasurer of that organization.  Mary has served as the president of the Canaan Valley Women’s Association and is a member of the Canaan Valley Fire Department Auxiliary.

 

To donate to the Gary and Mary Moden Fund, make checks payable to TCF – Gary and Mary Moden Fund and mail to the Tucker Community Foundation, P.O. Box 491, Parsons, WV 26287. Online donations can be made at www.tuckerfoundation.net.

 

The Tucker Community Foundation manages more than 140 endowed funds providing annual scholarships and grants to nonprofits and charitable causes throughout the eight-county service area. Inspired by the flood of 1985, the mission of the Foundation is to create opportunities for the communities we serve.
