The Lion of the Week is Gary A. Rothacher, our new member. He resides with his wife Jeanne at 400 Chatsworth Ct, Franklin.

Gary was born in New Philadelphia, Ohio on June 26,1942. He graduated from New Philadelphia High School 1960, and then served in the U.S. Army 1960 to 1963.

After the Army Gary worked in the Akron, Ohio area for many years in the machine trades as a Quality Assurance manager and/or Plant Manager. He was a member of The American Society for Quality Control. He was the manager of a Waste Water Treatment plant in Bonita Springs, Fl when he retired in 2004.

Upon his retirement, the couple moved to Franklin from Naples, Fl. so that they could be closer to Jeanne's daughter and grand children.

Gary has a son, Michael, living in Massillon, Ohio. Michael is the Vice President of Gregory Industries in Canton, Ohio.

Gary and Jeanne belong to the Oak Valley Baptist Church. Gary does volunteer driving for Senior Transport Partners at Grace Works. But at this time the only organization he belongs to is the Lions club. Gary says that he joins the club so that he may be of some help to the community. He did belong to the Masonic Lodge in Orrville, Ohio

Gary likes old cars and enjoys working on then. He is working on a 1964 Volkswagen at this time.

Welcome to the Lions club, Gary. We hope that you will find it the perfect place to "be of some help to the community." The Lions motto is "WE SERVE". You seem perfectly suited to us.
