PSP Jerry "Jake" Roush Passes

​Brothers & Sisters,
It is with very heavy hearts that the Ottumwa #114 Eagles informs you all of the passing of our Patriarch, (Jerry) Jake Roush, yesterday morning at his home.
Fossil, as many affectionately called Jake, was a 68 year member of the FOE and served as Iowa State Worthy President in 2011-2012. He was fiercely dedicated to this organization and was extremely knowledgeable. He was always willing to share his wisdom with anyone who sought it and could even cite parts of the Constitution word for word or tell you what section to look at off the top of his head.
He was married to his wonderful wife, Barb, for 65 years this past June. As you know, it was very rare to see Jake without Barb or vice versa. Please keep Barb & the entire Roush Family in your thoughts and prayers.
Jake has been cremated. A Celebration of Life will take place at the Ottumwa Eagles on September 10th at 2:00 PM. A meal will be served after the Service.
Here is the link to Jake’s Obituary for any who would like to read it.
