These forward-thinking Hampton Roads citizens cared deeply about people in the region where they lived and worked for so many years. Thanks to their charitable bequests they left behind
permanent field-of-interest funds that underpin important grants through the Hampton Roads Community Foundation.
Perry Morgan, who had been publisher of The Virginian-Pilot, died in 1999 --- seven years after his wife Bunny. The charitable focus he requested includes essential human services as well as arts and education.
Bill Goldback, a former Navy supply officer and owner of Atlantic Electric, left a legacy that funds medical services, education or research as well as the performing arts.
