FERGUSON, Earl Mark, loving husband and father, businessman and longtime community leader, passed away Wednesday, June 3, 2020, after a long battle with Myelodysplastic syndrome including a stem cell transplant in 2017. Ferguson was born and raised in Syracuse, New York, but Richmond was his home for more than 30 years. After graduating from the University of Wisconsin, Ferguson received his master’s degree in business from the Darden Business School at the University of Virginia. He was founder and CEO of Artcraft Management Inc., a successful property development and management company that managed over 10,000 multi-family and senior housing developments for more than 20 years. As much as his business defined him, he was defined by his leadership in the community even more, especially Richmond’s Jewish community. When he wasn’t closing real estate deals, he could be found giving his time and energy to a variety of organizations across the region. Ferguson was a Past President of the Weinstein JCC and of Congregation Beth Ahabah as well as a Member of the Board of Trustees of the Union for Reform Judaism and the Treasurer of the Virginia Holocaust Museum. In addition, he was the founder of the Uniform for Reform Judaism’s 6-Points Sports Academy, a sports camp for Jewish youth, a former Board Member of the Central Virginia Boys & Girls Club and of the Doorways (formerly the Hospital Hospitality House). He was recently recognized with the Humanitarian award from the Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities. Ferguson’s hobbies and pastimes came from his love of sailing from the Chesapeake Bay to the Virgin Islands to the South Pacific and his love of musical theater. He performed in several of the Weinstein JCC’s musicals including playing Tevya in Fiddler on the Roof. Earl is survived by his wife of 42 years, Linda; their son, Jesse; and his sister, Tina Laboe and husband, Charles. In light of the current public health crisis, his funeral will be private but the family intends to have a memorial service at an appropriate time in the future. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Congregation Beth Ahabah, 1121 West Franklin Street, Richmond, Va., and Union for Reform Judaism, 6 Points Sports Academy, Earl Ferguson Scholarship for Campers Fund, 633 Third Ave., New York, N.Y. 10017.
Nathan W. “Nate” Kendig, age 93, of Glen Mills, passed away on Friday, June 13, 2014 at his home at Maris Grove. He was the devoted and loving husband of Catherine (Mundy) Kendig, with whom he shared a wonderful 61 years of marriage.
Nate was born in 1921 and raised on his family’s farm in Bainbridge, PA. It was there he would begin to develop his work ethic, self discipline and patience, qualities he would one day pass along to his sons, students, athletes and campers. He graduated from East Donegal High School where he starred in football, basketball and captained the baseball team. Nate was heavily recruited by legendary coach Glen Killinger for both football and baseball and he enrolled in West Chester State College in 1939 on a full athletic scholarship. By the time he was a sophomore he was lettering in football, basketball and baseball. Already considered a pro baseball prospect, he spent one summer playing minor league baseball in the Cincinnati Reds organization in Watertown, NY.
In late 1941, Nate’s college career was interrupted by World War II and he left West Chester as he enlisted in the U.S. Army and was selected to be in the U.S. Rangers, an elite commando division of the army. He saw action in North Africa and Italy. Nate was awarded the Bronze Star and a Purple Heart for his heroic service to our country.
In 1945, Nate re-enrolled in West Chester State College and majored in Social Studies. Though no longer able to play football, he was able to letter in basketball, baseball and soccer. In baseball he batted .345 his senior year as a shortstop and remembers striking out three batters on nine pitches in one of his pitching performances. He was Captain of the basketball team and the second leading scorer. He was also elected President of his senior class. Voted the most courageous athlete prior to graduation in 1947, Nate was elected to the West Chester University Athletic Hall of Fame in 1993. And, in 2011, Nate was inducted in to the Chester County Sports Hall of Fame
Upon graduation from West Chester State College, Nate became a teacher at Spring City High School. During his five years there he was line coach in football and head coach in basketball and baseball. His teams won a league championship in both basketball and baseball.
Nate moved to Kennett High School in 1952 where he would become a coaching legend. He coached baseball from 1953 to 1961 and his teams were Southern Chester County League (S.C.C.L.) champions in 1953, 1955 and 1957. He also coached basketball from 1953 to 1968 and his teams won six straight S.C.C.L. championships from 1960 to 1965. Several of his teams won District playoff games.
Though Nate retired from coaching in 1968 he continued to work with young athletes as Athletic Director of Kennett High School, and subsequently Vice Principal, until his retirement from teaching in 1983.
In 1945, Nate joined the staff at Camp Kennebec in Belgrade, Maine as a riding counselor. He also worked as the Head of the Commissary and was appointed Head Counselor from 1978 to 1987. Nate’s career at Camp Kennebec was over four decades where he worked to help young men grow and develop for later life. Many of his campers stayed in close contact with “Uncle Nate” thru the years. In 2007, The Kennebec Campership Fund was created as a special honor for “Uncle Nate” in which money is raised to help send under privileged children to camps throughout New England.
In addition to his wife, Nate is survived by his sons Kevin (Veronica) of Sarasota, Florida, Terrance (Anna Marie) of Newark, Delaware and David (Deborah) of Ivyland, Pennsylvania and two adored grandchildren David Jr. (Duke) and Devon along with several nephews and nieces to left cherish his memory.

A Philadelphia Inquirer article on February 17th:
Bernie Lemonick, 87, of Jenkintown, a Penn football all-American who returned as defensive line coach to help Penn win its first Ivy League title in 1959, died Friday of Alzheimer’s disease at his home.
“We are incredibly saddened by the loss of such an iconic member of the Penn football family in Bernie Lemonick,” current Quakers coach Ray Priore said on the Penn football website.
“Bernie had illustrious careers both as a player and coach, and continued his unparalleled support of Penn football as an alum. Bernie will forever be remembered as someone who lived and breathed the Red and Blue, and we could not be more thankful for that.”
Mr. Lemonick was considered to be one of the nation’s best linemen from 1948 to 1950, his seasons at Penn, the website said. He was named to several all-American teams after his senior season and played in the East-West Shrine Game, the Hula Bowl, and the College All-Star Game (against the Cleveland Browns), according to the website.
He was chosen by wire services as national lineman of the week, once in 1949 (against Dartmouth) and again in 1950 (against Wisconsin). In 1985, he received the Distinguished American Award from the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame.
Mr. Lemonick returned to Penn in 1955 as an assistant football coach for five seasons.
After his coaching career, Mr. Lemonick cofounded and served as head of the Mungermen, the varsity football letter-winners who had played under legendary head coach George Munger from 1938 to 1953.
Penn classmate Pete Sigmund said Mr. Lemonick was responsible for placing both a statue of Munger and a plaque listing all the Mungermen on a building at the west end of Franklin Field.
Mr. Lemonick was inducted into the inaugural class of the Penn Athletics Hall of Fame in 1996, and also received the 1996 University of Pennsylvania Alumni Award of Merit in recognition of outstanding service to the school. He was inducted into the state of Pennsylvania’s 1995 Sports Hall of Fame City All-Star chapter.
A Philadelphia native, Mr. Lemonick was an all-Public League guard in 1945 who played for Olney High School. At Penn, he graduated with honors in 1951 with a bachelor’s degree in economics. He was named class president in 1951.
“He was a real gentleman and a strong leader of the class,” Sigmund said.
After graduating, Mr. Lemonick did advanced study at Temple University in real estate and went on to own and operate the Kennebec Camps in North Belgrade, Maine. After 14 years, he sold the business and made his living as director of business development for Jackson-Cross Co., the realty company in Philadelphia. He received the firm’s Ronald K. Porter Award for outstanding achievement.
Active in civic affairs, he supported the Philadelphia Board of Education’s Corporate Adopt-A-School Program; raised funds for the United Way and the Boy Scouts of America; and was a member of the board of the Abington Art Center and the USO.
Although a fierce competitor on the playing field, he was known for being kind, gentle, and an attentive family man in private life.
He was married for 58 years to Felicia Steiner, whom he met at a Penn-Cornell game. In addition to his wife, he is survived by sons Jim and John; a daughter, Julie; and nine grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held at noon Friday at Congregation Rodeph Shalom, 615 N. Broad St., Philadelphia. Burial was private. bcook@phillynews.com
Another article in the Philadelphia Daily News:
BERNIE LEMONICK was a hard-hitting lineman for the University of Pennsylvania football teams of the late 1940s and early ’50s, an era many old-time alumni and fans think of with teary-eyed nostalgia.
Penn was a powerhouse of collegiate football in those years, playing some of the biggest schools in the country, and easily filling the 75,000 seats at Franklin Field for every Saturday home game.
Legendary coaches and players strode the corridors and sidelines, their cleats grinding on the concrete, the fans delirious with their flags and pom-poms and full-throated cheers.
Philadelphia football at that time was Penn. The Eagles were playing, to be sure, but it was Penn that packed in fans and stole the headlines.
And Bernie Lemonick was part of it. He was thought of as one of the best linemen in the country, named to several All-American teams and picked to play in postseason bowl games.
Bernard Lemonick, who returned to Penn as a coach for a time after his playing career, owner of a boys’ camp in Maine, an executive of a Philadelphia real-estate firm and an Army veteran, died Friday of complications of Alzheimer’s disease. He was 87 and lived in Jenkintown.
“We are incredibly saddened by the loss of such an iconic member of the Penn football family,” said Penn head football coach Ray Priore. “Bernie had illustrious careers as both player and coach, and continued his unparalleled support of Penn football as an alum.
“Bernie will forever be remembered as someone who lived and breathed red and blue, and we could not be more thankful for that.”
“He was the most wonderful, gentlest person you could imagine – if not on the football field,” said his wife, the former Felicia Steiner. “He was humble and gentle. He was beloved by everyone.”
Bernie graduated with honors from Penn’s Wharton School in 1951.
In an era when newspaper wire services chose national players of the week, Bernie was picked twice as National Lineman of the Week, in 1949 after a game with Dartmouth and in 1950 after a game with Wisconsin.
Bernie was drafted by the New York Giants but opted not to play in the pros. His wife said it was because the Giants didn’t offer him enough money.
After his playing days, Bernie returned to Penn as an assistant football coach for five seasons and was the defensive line coach of the school’s first Ivy League championship team in 1959.
He was also line coach for St. Joseph’s Preparatory School for a time.
Bernie owned and operated Kennebec Camp for Boys in North Belgrade, Maine, for 14 years.
For a time in the 1980s, he joined Eagles Hall of Fame defensive back Tom Brookshier in a sports talk show on WCAU, taking fans’ questions about football.
Bernie worked for the Jackson-Cross real-estate firm, where he became vice president, and was named Man of the Year before illness forced him to retire.
Among Bernie’s most satisfying activities was as leader of the “Mungermen,” a group of former players and coaches under another Penn football icon, the late George Munger, head coach from 1938 to 1953. The group held annual reunions, always before a Penn game.
Munger’s teams led the nation in attendance between 1938 and 1942, with 1.78 million fans. “The Munger era represented the heyday of Quaker football,” the Daily Pennsylvanian once wrote.
Among Munger’s great players was Chuck Bednarik, the “60-minute man” who played center on offense and linebacker on defense and later starred with the Eagles. He was a senior at Penn when Bernie Lemonick was a sophomore.
Among Bernie’s classmates was the late Francis “Reds” Bagnell, All-American tailback at Penn. Bernie was president of the Class of ’51.
Bernie received numerous honors over the years, including being inducted into the inaugural class of the Penn Athletics Hall of Fame in 1996. He also received the 1996 University of Pennsylvania Alumni Award of Merit.
Bernie was born in Philadelphia to Samuel and Mary Lemonick. He graduated from Olney High School, where he was an All-Public guard. He entered the Army after high school and served stateside, playing football on Army teams.
He married Felicia Steiner on July 30, 1957.
Bernie was a passionate skier. He and Felicia and later their children hit the slopes at Steamboat Springs in the Colorado Rockies, among other ski destinations.
He was also a world traveler, taking trips nearly every year to sites in Europe, Asia and elsewhere.
“Other players said Bernie always made them feel valuable,” Felicia said. “He never looked down on anyone. And he loved his family.”
Besides his wife, he is survived by two sons, James E. and John D. Lemonick; a daughter, Julie A. Feldman; a brother, Seymour Lemonick; a sister, Ruth Lemonick; and nine grandchildren.

Philip B. Lindy, 83, of Center City, a philanthropist known for his work in city neighborhoods with Drexel University, died Saturday, June 29, of a heart attack.
Born in Philadelphia in 1930, Mr. Lindy married Annabel Lindy in December 1951. She died in 2010.
Mr. Lindy graduated from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania in 1952, served briefly in the Navy, and then founded a construction and contracting company, Lindy Bros., with his two brothers in the mid-1950s. Almost 20 years later, he founded Lindy Property Management.
The success of those enterprises funded a series of philanthropic pursuits. Mr. Lindy sought to create a program for disadvantaged youth in the city modeled on successful programs elsewhere, and eventually worked with Drexel University to establish the Lindy Scholars tutoring and mentoring program in 2008.
Three years later, Mr. Lindy donated $15 million to Drexel’s Center for Civic Engagement, which was renamed in his honor. The center is now housed in the Lindy Institute for Urban Innovation, established last year.
At a ceremony establishing the institute, Mr. Lindy’s son Alan said, neighborhood students and families wore gray T-shirts with “Phil rocks!” in navy blue.
“He insisted that it be done for the neighborhood,” Alan Lindy said. “It wasn’t your typical, large, trustee, black-tie affair that you would have for this type of naming event; it was a neighborhood event.”
Mr. Lindy was also active with the Gershman Y and Tribe 12, and was on the boards of several other foundations and community organizations.
Along the way, Alan Lindy said, his father managed to pack in an active social life.
“He always said he wanted to die on the tennis court. He never wanted to live past the day he couldn’t have fun any longer,” Alan Lindy said. “The day before he went to the hospital, he was busy from 7 in the morning to 11 at night.”
In addition to his son, Mr. Lindy is survived by his companion, Joan Brandeis; another son, Frank; a daughter, Elaine; two brothers; and eight grandchildren.
The funeral will be at 1 p.m. Monday, July 1, at Joseph Levine & Sons, 4737 Street Rd., Trevose. Burial will follow in Roosevelt Memorial Park.
