She met her future husband, Harvey Barnsley Kershaw Jr., while both were members at Roland Avenue Methodist Church. They married in 1943.

Harvey Barnsley Kershaw Jr., who rose from teller to chairman during nearly half a century with Provident Bank, died of pneumonia Sunday at Greater Baltimore Medical Center. The Ruxton resident was 87. As the bank's president, Mr. Kershaw made it a point to answer all his phone calls personally by announcing his name - without even a customary hello - as the line rang. He also believed that the bank's customers, whom he described as hard-working Baltimoreans, liked to have their savings noted in a passbook.

Vernon Milton Kershaw, a retired noncommissioned Navy officer who later was a stationary engineer, died of lung cancer Wednesday at Harbor Hospital. The Glen Burnie resident was 85. Mr. Kershaw was born in Baltimore and raised in Hampden. He was a graduate of Polytechnic Institute and enlisted in the Navy in 1942. He served aboard destroyers as a master chief machinist's mate for 22 years until retiring from the Navy in 1964. From the late 1960s into the early 1970s, he edited technical manuals for Edward T. Johnson Co. in Washington.

Kati Kershaw, operations director and on-air personality at classical radio station WBJC-FM (91.5), has tried more than once to create a single signature style for herself. She just can't do it. Her life, her appearance, her personality is "definitely a study in contrasts," says Kershaw, 33. Just when "my colleagues at work think they have me pinned down, you can't really pin me down. No way. I really love it all." The product of an "eclectic household," where there was no television but plenty of classical and bluegrass music, Kershaw -- and her wardrobe -- reflects that multicultural background.

In a girls soccer game dominated by tight marking, a couple of fine saves and some shots that missed either high or wide, Loch Raven's overtime goal against visiting Catonsville yesterday was a textbook piece of offense. Senior striker Samantha Hannibal sent a cross to the far post that was won by freshman Christie Moyer, who placed it in the middle for senior Sa'Sha Kershaw to tap. Kershaw's sixth goal of the season came two minutes into the first overtime and gave the No. 15 Raiders a 2-1 win over the Comets in Baltimore County play.

On April 29, 2005 NORMA H. STROHMINGER, beloved wife of Henry Strohminger, loving mother of Randy, Patti, Rusty, Tina, Kelley, Michael, Henry III, and Karl T.

The family will receive friends from 6 to 8 P.M., Tuesday May 3, at the Baker Funeral Home, 210 East Hilton St., Kershaw, SC 29067.

Two key witnesses in the fatal shooting of the nephew of a city judge have recanted their statements on the witness stand - leaving the prosecutor with no physical evidence and one unwavering eyewitness to the killing, the victim's best friend. Tevon Allen, 19, is on trial this week on a charge of first-degree murder in the July 2007 killing of Jordan Brown, the nephew of Baltimore District Judge Videtta A. Brown, in a case that has been a test from the start. In opening statements, prosecutor Lisa Phelps warned jurors that two witnesses might change their stories.

A city judge sentenced a Baltimore man yesterday to 100 years in prison for the brutal beating of a man that led to his death in a motel stairwell in the summer of 2006, according to the Baltimore state's attorney's office. Ernest Knox, 25, of the 900 block of Woodington Road, who has gone by the alias Donnell Williams, was convicted in March of first-degree murder in the beating of Cecil Saunders, 28. Baltimore Circuit Judge Robert Kershaw sentenced Knox to life in prison with all but 100 years suspended.

A Baltimore Circuit Court jury awarded a 55-year-old man $44 million yesterday in a police brutality case in which a police officer was accused of throwing the man headfirst into the concrete wall of a holding cell and rendering him a quadriplegic. Albert Mosley uses a wheelchair and lives in a private medical facility in Towson. "I feel good right now, I feel real good," Mosley last night. "I just didn't want him to get away with it. I knew he done something wrong." City Solicitor Ralph S. Tyler said the city will file the appropriate post-trial motions before deciding whether to challenge the decision.

COLLEGE PARK -- When Maryland linebacker D'Qwell Jackson first met teammate William Kershaw, he could barely understand him. Kershaw's thick, North Carolina drawl kept his roommate guessing. Now, as the seniors line up next to each other to anchor the Terps' defense, their communication couldn't be better. Jackson and Kershaw, along with redshirt junior David Holloway, lead a unit that has played more snaps collectively than any other Terps group on defense. Sandwiched between a young defensive line and a secondary that lost three starters, the linebackers are being counted on heavily this year to help slow the run. The trio combined for 32 starts last fall.

Maj. Gen. Joseph B. Kershaw had a distinguished military career in the Confederate army, the high point being his role in the surprise attack at Cedar Creek. Kershaw was a South Carolina lawyer who attained his rank in the early days of the Civil War through his social status. His competent fighting throughout the war helped him rise through the ranks to become a major general. Under the command of Lt. Gen. Jubal A. Early, the Confederate army launched a coordinated attack against the Union troops in the pre-dawn hours of Oct. 19, 1864.
