John Robert Spears, Ed.D.

 1946-2002

Montanus Semper Liberus

S

on of a coal miner and hardscrabble pioneer mother, John rose up as a free mountaineer to assert his dignity and worth in business, education, and government.  He looked back only to extend a helping hand to others, and fought the good fight, not only for himself, but for countless others blessed by his friendship and inspired by his example.

 

The Robert H. Mollohan Family Charitable Foundation, Inc. and the John R. Spears Memorial Committee support the perpetuation of the values that West Virginia gave to John and that he returned unsullied, values that he lived by and died by, to keep and pass on to future generations.  If you are interested in receiving more information about the exciting projects in memory of John Spears that are in development or would like to be considered a friend of John Spears, please contact us.
