Elizabeth J. Tusing

Miss Tusing was my Spanish teacher & truly one of the best. Such a kind & caring person. She took me on an IntraAmerican Student Tour to Mexico in the summer of 1974. What great memories we made with our group. She was always so kind to our Spanish speaking exchange students. She was a caring mother figure to them when they were scared, homesick, etc. I got to take one of those students to her house a few years ago when they were here visiting me. It was wonderful to see them...

Ms. Rising was my high school Spanish teacher. I learned a lot from her and her upbeat manner always made it a class I enjoyed. She will be missed.

loved Miss Tusing's Spanish class- useful for high school age mexico trip.

It was great knowing Betty from our high school days. May you rest in peace.

Miss Tus, as many of her students and ball players called her, was a wonderful, caring, always put a smile on your face type of individual. She always made you feel okay, even in tough times. She will be missed by many. So happy to have had her as a coach in my life.

A tremendous and caring teacher, a great coach, a sweet lady and a wonderful friend. I will miss you "Three-sing"! That is what I would call her when she called me "McQuatics"! until we meet again. It was a privilege to be your colleague. Barb McQuaid

I had Ms. Tusing for homeroom in 11th Grade. She was a wonderful caring lady. Always willing to help students in her homeroom with homework for other subjects. On Fridays if you asked her to sing she would "Tusing" some random song for her students. Years later I befriended her niece and was always sure to ask how she was doing. She will be missed. Condolences to Sarah and the rest of her family

Miss Tusing was my basketball coach over 50 years ago. I have never forgotten the great times we had with her. She was one of the best.

Betty was my Spanish teacher starting in 8th grade at Tarentum High School. Then she was my basketball coach. She encouaged me to go into teaching and sports officiating! She was my friend far beyond high school and college! Betty had a flawless two hand jump shot from outside today's 3-point line! She had the biggest smile and warmest heart! Vayas con Dios, mi Amiga! We are all better from having had you in our lives! Love and prayers for the family and friends!
