Following the death of Ophia Davis in 2002, the Elmer L. Davis Memorial Fund was merged with the Ophia A. Davis and Elmer L. Davis Memorial Fund creating a single fund that generates income for the YMCA. Mr. Davis served Beckley National Bank as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer during his 28 year career there. He was Mayor of Beckley in 1945-55. Mrs. Davis left a generous testamentary gift to this fund. Ophia A. Stover was a lifelong resident of Beckley and actively involved in many organizations including the Beckley Woman’s Club attended the First Baptist Church and was a charter member of the Beckley Garden Club.
