28 Help Shape McQuaid Jesuit’s Future The Father Noonan Knights' Heritage Society The Father Noonan Knights' Heritage Society is comprised of alumni, parents and friends of McQuaid Jesuit who intend to leave a legacy in their own name or in the name of a loved one as a way of helping the school form future leaders in service. More than 25 years ago, the life of a genuine and compassionate McQuaid Jesuit Senior, John M. Schoenberger ’86, was cut short in a tragic automobile accident. For his mother, Anne H. Schoenberger, it was extremely important that the memory of her son be embodied in a lasting and meaningful way. So it was that she, and her husband, John, established the John M. Schoenberger ’86 Memorial Scholarship Fund. The desire in creating this endowed scholarship was “to provide academically able but financially unable students the opportunity to flourish in the Jesuit identity.” This scholarship, then, is awarded to an incoming freshman who otherwise could not afford to attend McQuaid Jesuit. The award is made, so long as he remains in good academic standing, through his four years at McQuaid. On October 21, 2010, Anne H. Schoenberger died. In her will she bequeathed her entire estate to McQuaid Jesuit to ensure the legacy of her son’s Memorial Scholarship. This more than $500,000 bequest will ensure in perpetuity the John M. Schoenberger '86 Memorial Scholarship Fund. Mrs. Schoenberger’s dream of providing a Jesuit education to young men who would not otherwise be able to afford one has been achieved. According to Anne’s niece, Ann Thompson Murphy, her Aunt Anne and her cousin, John, “embodied the Jesuit identity” of McQuaid. They described that identity in these words: There was always a belief in and knowledge of God’s all-encompassing presence; an enthusiasm for life, an effervescent love of learning, the highest regard for academic excellence, appreciation for “community” bonds, and a giving, nurturing spirit in all aspects of daily existence. The President of McQuaid Jesuit, Edward F. Salmon, S.J., recalls that in the Spiritual Exercises St. Ignatius points out “. . . that love ought to manifest itself in deeds rather than in words.” Fr. Salmon sees, therefore, that “Anne Schoenberger’s extraordinary gift is a deed that clearly manifests her love -- her love for her son, John, her love for the education that McQuaid Jesuit provided for him. Her bequest also clearly manifests her love for the young men who have benefited and who will continue to benefit for years to come from the Jesuit education that Anne Schoenberger valued so greatly.” Though she had lost her only child, Anne continued to embrace her son, John’s, memory through this scholarship fund. Knowing that she could help other young men by giving them the gift of a Jesuit education gave her great peace. Her niece, Ann Thompson Murphy, expressed it this way: “. . . the joy is alive in your McQuaid ways -- the sense of inner strength, outward sparkle, and loyal commitment to serving others -- this lives on through Anne and John Schoenberger’s names.” If you have any questions about naming McQuaid Jesuit as a beneficiary of any of your personal assets, please contact Pamela White at (585) 256-6183 or pwhite@mcquaid.org.
