F. Page Seibert

Finley Page Seibert Sr (born October 9, 1884 in Washington County, Maryland; died January 30, 1968 in Daytona Beach, Florida) was a pharmacist, a founder of Liberty National Life Insurance Company, and a major benefactor of Samford University.

Seibert was the son of Michael Finley Seibert, a sheriff of Washington County, Maryland, and his wife, Eleanor. He attended public schools in Hagerstown and the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. He entered the retail drug business in Philadelphia in 1906 and prospered. He married the former Mae Emmert on February 22, 1918 and had one son, F. Page Jr, the following year.

In 1925 Seibert joined the board of directors of the Liberty Life Assurance Society, which became the Liberty National Life Insurance Company in 1929. Seibert retired from pharmacology in 1942. He moved to Daytona Beach, Florida in 1951 and became a supporter of the Florida Presbyterian College there.

Though he was not a member of the Baptist church, Seibert became a major supporter of Howard College in 1961 through his relationship with Liberty National president Frank Samford. Seibert Stadium and Seibert Hall were named in his honor. He also provided funds for the establishment of the Glaucoma Eye Clinic at Halifax District Hospital in Daytona Beach.

Seibert died in 1968. He was cremated and his ashes interred at Saint Paul's Lutheran Church Cemetery in Hagerstown, Maryland.
