William and Beverlee Harsh Palmer of Minerva, both members of the Minerva High School Class of 1958, have been a team since high school. They celebrated their fortieth wedding anniversary on January 30 of this year. They are the parents of three sons, Gregg, Bradley and Kevin who have continued to work in the same mold as their parents.
Bill is the son of Clarence and Betty Palmer. He has two sisters, Judy Bryan and Sharon Palmer, and a brother Ron Palmer.
Beverlee is the daughter of Karl and Marjorie Harsh and has one sister, Sandra Andrews. Karl and Marjorie Harsh owned and operated Harsh Billiards and Lunch until Marjorie's death in 1960. Then Bill and Beverlee took over the operation of the business until they sold it in 1972. They have owned and operated Minerva Bowl since 1975 when they purchased it from Dick and Sue Mount.
Gregg, their oldest son, is a member of the Minerva High School Hall of Fame and was a very special child. Gregg had spina bifida. Beverlee was once asked how they stood the burden of his care. She replied, "Gregg has never been a burden, but a blessing to us." Bradley, Kevin and Gregg all worked with their parents in the Minerva Bowl.
Bill and Bev work for the youth of the community. Trying to keep young people from getting hurt after the prom and giving the young people an alternative to post-prom activities, they, along with other businesses, clubs and individuals, were pleased to provide the students with community-sponsored entertainment.
A member of Rotary Club of Minerva with 32 years of perfect attendance, and a Paul Harris Fellow of Rotary International, Bill has been involved with all the activities of the club. He has served in every capacity from committee chairman to club president and representative of the District Governor. Beverlee as a Rotarian is always a step ahead to make certain all plans run smoothly.
Bill has been active in the Minerva Community Association for many years. He and Beverlee oversaw the Minerva Homecoming, arranged for the rides and entertainment, and for many years the parade.
The new look of the Community Building was the vision of the Palmers, and they have been instrumental in its continued improvement. At the present time, Bill is putting together plans to put new kitchen facilities in the building.
Bill is in charge of the games and prizes for the Minerva Rotary Club’s Christmas party for special children.
The Palmers have kept alive the memories of The Minerva Merchants Football Team by hosting their annual awards.
The Palmers donated the land for Mayor Park at the corner of Line and Main Streets.
William and Beverlee Palmer were nominated to the Hall of Fame by Marilyn Bartley, and seconded by Bernard Marcinkowey. In her nomination Marilyn said that Bill and Beverlee Palmer have the same qualities of caring about the well-being of the town as Dr. Hines, Dr. Weir and Dr. Whiteleather. They work with the students and teach them the qualities of courtesy and the need to work to become better persons as did Hall of Famers Lee Jackson and Bob Gallina.
Bill and Beverlee Palmer are Minerva High School Alumni who work quietly, leading by example and multiplying limited means to achieve extraordinary things.
Captain Robert E. Hart, Class of 1937, was chosen for the Minerva High School Alumni Hall of Fame by the Minerva High School Advisory Committee. He attended Culver Military Academy, studied business and science at Case Western Reserve University, studied journalism at Kent State University, and studied mathematics, sciences, seamanship and ordinance at Northwestern University and U. S. Midshipman School.
He served during World War II as a junior and then a commanding officer. He was Minerva's senior military officer on active duty during World War II and the Korean War. He has served as a naval aide and a marketing and public relations officer.
Hart retired from the U. S. Navy in 1961 with the rank of Captain following 20 years of active service. He then joined the American Export Lines (AEL) in New York City as executive assistant to the president and the chief executive officer. At AEL he was in charge of marketing, public relations, and advertising for the company's 41 freighters and their three luxury cruise liners. In 1968 he joined the Marine Index Bureau and served as president and chief operating officer from 1970 to January 1989 when he resigned.
He was a professor of marketing at Mount Union College from 1988 until 1994. In 1995 he became director of marine operation, for SWR (a chemical manufacturing company) in Lansing, Michigan.
Hart belongs to many professional organizations and has received many awards and honors. Although he and Jane, his wife of 40 years, claim residence at their new home on their summer property in Ohio, they still maintain their apartment in New York where he maintains his business contacts and commutes monthly to New York City.
He is the son of Minerva's former Postmaster for 25 years, Charles A. Hart and his wife, Alma Mae Hart. He credits his mother, a 1908 graduated of the University of Cincinnati for all his life achievements.
Martha Jean Hawkins Gartner, class of 1949, was nominated by Carolyn Nape. In her nomination, Nape said, "Martha is a gracious, generous, humble woman who is dedicated to her God, husband, children, friends and community of Minerva. She is constantly bringing joy, love, friendship and food to her many friends in the surrounding communities where she and Carl live and serve. Just like the Martha in the Bible, she is always busy working and preparing wonderful food to help brighten up someone's day. She is a person who has never forgotten where she was born and grew up. Yet Martha is very capable of communicating with the First Lady of the United States, congressmen, people of many various prestigious positions and her hometown friends in rural Ohio."
In high school she served as editor of the Diary and the Crescent. She was active in many organizations including Y Teens, Girls Athletic Association, and National Honor Society and was an attendant to the May Queen. After graduation she attended Dyke College in Cleveland where she received an associate degree in Business. In 1953 she married Carl Gartner and moved from New Franklin to Minerva.
Gartner's community service includes St. Paul's Lutheran Church, the American Red Cross (Minerva Chapter), the Minerva Historical Society, Blossom Music Women's Committee, Malone College, St. Luke Lutheran Community, Salvation Army and a Rotary Exchange Host family.
Her church work is never-ending and includes being director of vacation Bible school for many years, a Sunday School teacher, assisting with the monthly food distribution, and she has held any number of offices in the Woman's Club. She volunteered as a Gray Lady for the Red Cross at Minerva Grade School, spent many hours distributing funds and goods to local citizens in time of need, led the annual fund-raising door-to-door campaign, and encouraged volunteers to give to the community Blood Bank.
Gartner is a charter member of the Minerva Area Historical Society. What started on the top floor of the City Hall has progressed to the Haas Museum. Gartner has been an integral part of the growth of the museum serving in most offices, and presently is the secretary and a trustee. In 1995 she was selected for the Community Service Award, presented by the Minerva Service Clubs and Chamber of Commerce.
She is the chairperson for the St. Luke Lutheran Community Minerva Steering Committee. She is involved with a new building being constructed on Woodale Avenue in Minerva. This will be a thirty-unit assisted living facility that should open for residence later this year.
She values education. In the 1980s she was involved with the Malone annual fund drives. Also she and Carl have been active with Carl's Alma Mater, Mount Union University.
In 2009 they were honored by having the Gartner Welcome Center named in their honor for their many years of service to Mount Union.
The Gartners have four children who have all graduated from Minerva High School: Beth, Molly, Keith, and Seth.
Richard Hetherington, Class of 1953, was nominated by his brother Robert Hetherington and Tom Kishman. In their nomination they stated, "The Minerva High Alumni Hall of Fame is composed of men and women who have set their goals and aspiration in life to the highest standards. Dick Hetherington has done this and has excelled in leadership, business, family and life. Dick truly deserves a spot on the Wall in the lobby of Minerva High School."
Hetherington started in the food business working for the Lippincott Dairy and the Minerva Food Market (Jake's Market) during his junior high and high school years. He spent eight years with the A & P Company and six years as owner of a Piggly Wiggly Supermarket in Dodgeville, Wisconsin.
In 1971 he became the president of East Central Ohio Food Dealers and in 1975, while still serving ECO, became president of the Ohio Grocer’s Association. When he took over this leadership, the association was nearly bankrupt and had a very non-active membership. Twenty-six years later it has snowballed into a proactive organization with many services for its members, which holds almost a million dollars worth of real estate, and started a coupon-clearing agency to generate profits. He transformed the OGA's fledgling annual convention and trade show into one of the largest of its kind.
Hetherington was instrumental in developing the two-year accredited supermarket food program at OSU's Agricultural Technical Institute in Wooster, and started a grass-roots effort in the early 1970s evolving ECO and OGA members meeting directly with their congressmen and senators on both the state and federal level. This program was so successful that it became the prototype for other state food associations and eventually the National Grocer’s Association adopted it.
He received several awards including: The Grocers Spotlight Award in 1978; The Charles T. Barnum Award in 1984, which was the highest honor awarded to an individual in the food industry in the state of Ohio; the Spirit of America Award in 1985 (a national award); and was inducted into the National Grocer’s Association Hall of Fame.
Hetherington served with the U. S. Air Force from 1954 to 1957. He was active in service clubs and his church in the North Canton area. We are saddened by the fact that he did not live to receive this latest honor.

Joan Hart Henninger, class of 1957, was nominated by Rosemary Lutz Vandegrift, class of 1957. She is a retired teacher from Minerva Local Schools with 32 years experience.
She is currently a resident artist at the Market Street Art Spot in Minerva. Joan, Michelle Mulligan and Marty Chapman initiated the idea, which came to fruition in 2011 with the additional help of Laura Donnelly and Sally Lytle. An art gallery in Minerva was something that she “believed in.”
She was born on her grandfather’s farm in rural New Harrisburg to Kate and Ed Hart. Joan grew up in Minerva. She began art lessons at 14 with local artist Jean Calerdine Browne, her mentor for forty years. Her favorite subjects were barns, since she was always around them.

In 1957 she entered Kent State University’s teacher cadet program and began her teaching career in September 1964. She taught grades kindergarten, first, second, and sixth at Minerva Elementary. Her favorite grade to teach was first grade because she taught her students how to read. After the birth of her son in 1962, she taught private kindergarten for five years with Mona Theobald. She often used art to motivate her students. Summertime gave her time to paint locally and during her travels. Painting on site is her favorite thing to do.
In 1960, she married William Henninger, an engineer at Good Roads Machinery. She has one son, Brad. Brad lives in Perry Township in Lake County, Ohio. He is married to Judi and has two daughters, Ashley Hegarty of Virginia Beach, and Aimee Simon of Perry Township.
Joan has been a member of Minerva First Christian Church for 65 years. She taught Sunday school and was chairman of the Home Department. She created a memorial garden there for her husband, who died in 2000. A painting she created of the church is hanging in the Narthex.
Joan’s community is very important to her. She is past-president of the Entre Nous service club and continues to be an active member. The club has planted flowers and shrubs in the cemetery, created the Minerva welcome signs and installed flower planters along Market Street. She has participated in the Minerva Junior Women’s Club, Minerva Chamber of Commerce, OEA, Sans Souci, bridge clubs, and Calligrapher’s Alliance.
Besides painting, Henninger’s hobbies include swimming, knitting, golfing, gardening, and cooking for which she has received numerous awards. She taught swimnastics for 12 years at the Great Trail Golf Club.
Joan has traveled to many European countries such as Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Switzerland, Turkey, Greece and Ireland. Those places have served as subjects for her art.

She has exhibited at the Butler Art Institute of America, Salem Art Show, Algonquin Mill Festival, Massillon Museum of Art, Stark County Fair, Minerva Arts and Craft Fair, Lost Gold Festival in Minerva, Steam Railroad Museum and the Carroll County Commission for the Advancement of the Arts. She has had a solo art show at the Market Street Art Spot. She exhibits work in her private studio, the Oil Slick.
Minerva has been good for Henninger to grow up, prosper, and enjoy! It is her hometown, and she wouldn’t trade it for any other place.
Janette Henry McAvoy McClave, Class of 1924, was nominated by her daughter Marylee Thompson of Minerva. McClave obtained a bachelor's and master's degree in Education from Kent State University. She also attended the Universities of Colorado and South Carolina. She is now retired from the Minerva Local Schools where she taught at Mary Irene Day Elementary School.
McClave's community service is outstanding.

She was the recipient of the Distinguished Service Award for 1989 at the Inter Service Club Banquet--the first woman to receive this award.
In the nomination of her mother, Thompson wrote, "She is not content to sit idly by but will go out of her way to help others. In between the times she is involved in the community projects, she still finds time to quilt and has taught quilting classes as well as organizing the annual quilt show that is held by the Minerva Area Historical Society. My mother was a single parent during the time my sister and I grew up, my father died when we were very small. She raised us to respect ourselves as well as others. She has been not only as an inspiration to my sister and me, but also to my daughters and now to her great-granddaughter. She has always tried to put 110% into every phase of her life, whether it be teaching, community service, professional organizations or everyday living, and it truly shows in her accomplishments."
The Minerva High School Alumni Hall of Fame was instituted in 1984 when the Advisory Committee from Minerva High School chose Dr. Robert H. Hines as its first inductee. Hines, MHS Class of 1943, is the attending physician for Minerva High School sports events. MHS Athletic Director Bernard Marcinkowey said, "Dr. Hines has made 9000 visits in the course of his sports event attendance. We are the only Senate League team with an attending physician--and Dr. Hines always makes sure he has a replacement for the times he is unable to attend." Marcinkowey added, "I have been here for eleven years and in that time, I didn't just meet a physician, I met a friend."
In 1941, while in high school, he commenced two years of a special pre-med course at Mount Union College. All this was accomplished with excellence and in addition he was one of the Tri-County's outstanding dribblers and shooters on the 1942 Minerva High basketball team.
Dr. Hines is a graduate of Mount Union College, George Washington University, interned at Akron City Hospital and has been practicing medicine in Minerva since 1950. His focus has been on General Practice and Pediatrics.
He has been a member of the school board, is a Lions Club member, received the Minerva Jaycee Distinguished Service Award in 1966, and the inter-club Man of the Year award in 1983. He has also been honored with an award from the Ohio State Athletic Association. Dr. Hines was the chairman of the citizen's group that helped pass a school bond issue for the present high school.
Dr. Hines confessed that this honor conferred on him was very "emotional, very traumatic." He added in a message to the students present at the Honors Banquet, "What you do and whatever you've done, you owe to your parents and teachers.
Dr. Hines said his favorite writers were Thomas Paine and William H. McGuffy who came from Ohio and wrote the McGuffy readers. He quoted from a reader, "Work while you work, play while you play, one thing at a time. All that you do, do with all your might. Things done by half are not done right."
Dr. Hines has two children, Dixie (Mrs. Glenn Reynolds) of Virginia and Randall of Wisconsin. Dr. Hines and his wife Jean live in Minerva.
Dr. John Michael Hoopes, Class of 1965, was selected for the Alumni Hall of Fame by the MHS Advisory Committee. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Pharmacy from Ohio Northern University in 1979 and his Doctor of Pharmacy in 1974 from Duquesne University.

His research, teaching and consulting led to publications in many journals, such as the New England Journal of Medicine, Journal of American Medical Association, and Journal of Infectious Disease, to name a few.
Hoopes is an asset to his profession, not only for all of his professional accomplishments, but also for his dedication to his family (wife Janet, children Emily, Katy and Aaron), church and community. Since 2006, Mike has funded a scholarship for graduating Minerva High School students in memory of his parents, Bud and June Hoopes.
