The Virginia Law Foundation this month received its largest bequest ever: a $25,000 gift from the estate of attorney Ken McFarlane Smith.

Mr. Smith, a longtime Arlington lawyer, was a member of the Fellows Class of 1998 and served on the VLF board of directors from 2004-2007. He died in January of this year.

“Ken was a firm believer in supporting charitable organizations and he did throughout his long and illustrious career in both word and deed,” said John D. McGavin, executor of the Smith estate, in a statement.
