John Schaeffer 82 was among men of finance - by Kevin Dayhoff

John Schaeffer 82 was among men of finance

In http://www.explorecarroll.com/ please find two pieces I wrote about the late John Schaeffer of Westminster Bank and Trust Company.

Since these two tributes about Mr. Schaeffer appeared in the paper, many folks have come forward with stories about Mr. Schaeffer’s great mind for business, his service to his community and his extraordinary sense of customer service.

Perhaps one of the best among many was the story of the Mom with four children who had a problem with her checking account.  Mr. Schaeffer, the president of bank the mind you, found the problem and because the Mom could not get back to the bank because she was busy with her children; Mr. Schaeffer hand delivered the paperwork and her checkbook to her house.

The Oct. 31 death of John C. Schaeffer, 82, of Westminster, caused many older Carroll County residents to reminisce nostalgically about days long gone by.

Schaeffer was a well-respected country banker, who knew the business of finance and served his community steadfastly for many years.

Moreover, he was friendly, and always had time to talk with anyone, no matter his or her position or station in life.

A glimpse into the life and times of Schaeffer is also a history lesson in banking in Carroll County, and a study of the legacy of distinguished community leadership for over a half-a-century.
