I was an assistant for Dr. Roush for several years before he encouraged me to go to Hygiene School at (then)Lima Tech. He took away all of my excuses and made the way possible to find a fulfilling career of over 40 years! I will forever be grateful for him. Kathy B.

Missy I am so sorry to hear this news. Dr. Roush was a pretty special man, but I know I don't have to tell you that. I enjoyed the time that I spent working for him. When we would have a spare minute during the day he always asked how my classes were going. He even tried to help me with math one time! God help him! I will always have fond memories looking back on those days. I'm glad he appreciated my sense of humor as I did his too. Please know I am thinking of you and the entire family and sending prayers for strength and peace to you.
