I remember Mr. Roesch as our football coach and science teacher at Wehrle. His zest for life and fun is a great memory that makes me smile to this day. One of his favorite sayings was “doggone it” followed by the players name. R.I.P. Coach.

Dave was a great person and wonderful teammate on our baseball team at Ohio Dominican. He was nicknamed the "Hammer" for his timely home runs. My best to his family.
