Paul and Ruth Keirsted Memorial Scholarship Fund

Established in 2010

Paul Keirsted was a seventh and eighth grade gym teacher and wrestling and track coach in the York Suburban School District for many years. Ruth Keirsted was employed by Commonwealth National Bank. Following the deaths of Paul and Ruth, this fund was established to provide scholarships to York Suburban students planning to further their education in the areas they loved the most: gardening, cooking, and teaching.
