WSB contributing photojournalist Matt Durham reports: Saturday afternoon, ladder trucks could be seen crossing their “sticks” in memory of CDR Max Joseph Roushman Jr. in front of Forest Lawn Funeral Home in West Seattle. Max Joseph Roushman Jr. was born on August 29, 1919 and graduated from Cleveland High School. Roushman served 34 years in the Navy, primarily flying as a pilot. After retiring, Roushman became a volunteer for King County Fire District #2 in Burien. From 1993 to 2005, Max served as a Fire Commissioner for King County. His full biography is online here.
