Our Board

I am currently the President of the JRMF. I retired from The Chef’s Garden where I worked as the Food Safety and Farm Safety Coordinator for 13 years. Prior to that I worked at Cedar Point in Food Service Management for 25 years. I have served as the secretary and president of the Zonta Club as well as on the board of Erie County Area Safety Council.

I attended Bowling Green State University and graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Education. I currently live in Sandusky, Ohio and enjoy spending time with my daughter and grandkids. My interests lie in gardening, music, great movies and good books!  Family means everything to me!

With a passion for safety I believe in the need for education and awareness to help families in emergency situations.

I am the vice president of the JRMF, Ladies Auxiliary Treasurer and co-chair on the Membership Committee for the Huron Yacht Club, and a member of the Entertainment Committee with the Huron Eagles Aerie #2875. I am recently retired from Management Development with Macys and Cedar Fair Companies. And am currently a partner with my husband John’s financial business in Sandusky, Ohio.

While living in Huron, Ohio I truly love spending time with family, special friends, gardening, boating, golfing, and travel. I appreciate every minute of my family time including spending time with my two grandsons, currently 5 and 8 years old. They have inspired my interest in the JRMF and in keeping families identified in emergency situations.

I am currently the secretary of the JRMF. I am detail oriented and enjoy keeping things organized. With a background in data entry and environmental compliance I am familiar with keeping records and meticulously documenting any changes made within our organization.

Having grown up with Julie and growing our families at the same time I was deeply impacted by her loss and the loneliness her children faced while waiting for a familiar face. I am passionate about keeping families connected in emergency situations and spreading the word about any resources available to help families in their darkest hours.

Outside of the foundation I enjoy spending time with my family, crafting, playing games, and drinking coffee.

Angel is the youngest of 7 children. Married to John Fox. Mother of 2 boys: Conor (22) a graduate of Bellarmine University and entering Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine, and Aidan (18) who is entering Ave Maria University Pre-Law/ Business this fall. Angel is the Sr. Director of the Office of Diocesan Legal Counsel and Safe Environment for the Catholic Diocese of Columbus. She has over 30 years of experience as an attorney. In 2018 Angel received prayers from a group of children at a Catholic Conference when she asked for healing from stage 4 esophageal cancer and her world was changed forever. From that event Angel has shared her testimony of healing speaking at various events both locally and nationally. In March of 2020 she was a featured guest on EWTN national radio program, Beyond Damascus. The story of her miracle is retold in the published book, Pray Fully writing by Michele Faehnle and Emily Jaminet—bestselling authors of Divine Mercy for Moms and The Friendship Project available through Ava Maria Press and on Amazon. Dr. Mary Healy, professor of Scripture at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit and chair of the Doctrinal Commission of International Catholic Charismatic Renewal Services (ICCRS) recently shared Angel’s testimony to over 20,000 Catholics at the National Eucharistic Congress.

I’m passionate about this foundation saving lives.

I hope to assist in steering the foundation to success by maintaining the utmost integrity and trust in what we are on mission to accomplish.

My name is Tricia White. Although born and raised in Sandusky, Ohio, I have been a resident of Lucas County for more than 30 years. I attended the University of Toledo and received my Master of Arts in Criminal Justice. I have worked at the Lucas County Sheriff’s Office for the past 30 years. I currently hold the position of Major in the Law Enforcement Division overseeing the Road Patrol, Detective Bureau, Drug Abuse Response Team, SWAT Team, Communications Section, and Records Bureau. I am also employed as an adjunct professor in the Criminal Justice Department at the University of Toledo.

I am passionate about the mission and vision of the Julie Roth Memorial Foundation on several levels. First and foremost, Julie is family. My mother and Julie’s grandmother were sisters. I am also a law enforcement officer who has seen firsthand the immense need for identification and emergency contact information during emergencies.

I have been involved with several organizations within the community and currently sit on the Board of Directors at the Salvation Army of Northwest Ohio, the Lucas County Mental Health and Recovery Services Board, and Toledo Metro Federal Credit Union. I have three children – DJ who is a teacher at Central Catholic High School in Toledo, Dominic who is in quality assurance at a medical facility, and Tessa who is a junior accounting major at Walsh University in North Canton, Ohio. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, binge-watching any good Netflix series, and traveling to new places.
