Not sure what to say?

I was very distraught over hearing of the passing of such a kind and gentle soul. I truly believe that Jack Kusher was put here by God to look over expectant mothers. His kindnesses to me and my family will never be forgotten. Over the years since his retirement I have seen several doctors, but I have found no one who could even fill his shoes. His grandson Kevin was born while I was still in the hospital after giving birth to my first child by c-section only days before and, knowing his son...

I became a patient of Dr. Jack Kushner in 1964. When I became pregnant in 1969 with my first child, he asked my preference. I said, I hoped it would be a boy.

My husband had knee problems & I was parking the car. I saw Dr. Kushner coming into the garage & he asked why I was in town. I just had a visit with him the day before. I told him about my husband & he insisted I take his parking place. The parking place had his name on it. That night I went into labor. I will always...

we have lost a mentor and a friend.
we feel the loss and share in your grief.
