Cardinal Shehan School in Baltimore recently established the Father Wayne Funk Scholarship Award to provide tuition assistance to Catholic students enrolled in the school. The late Father Funk served as pastor of St. Matthew, Northwood, when Cardinal Shehan School was formed by the merger of St. Matthew and St. Thomas More Schools in 1989. Paula Redman, principal of Cardinal Shehan, said the priest was “beloved by many.” She said interested donors to the scholarship award will be acknowledged in school publications and the St. Matthew bulletin. Contributions may be sent to Ms. Redman at the school, 5407 Loch Raven Blvd, Baltimore, MD 21239.
