Abstract

Presents an obituary for Ruth Ochroch, who died in Laguna Woods, California, on December 21, 2015, at the age of 96. Often described as a "force of nature," Ruth helped develop standards for practice and training and was twice president of the New York State Psychological Association (NYSPA). But Ruth's service to psychology reached well beyond NYSPA and she received myriad awards during her career, including Outstanding Advocate for Psychology Award (1995), Distinguished Practitioner of Psychology (1996), and Lifetime Achievement Award (2001). But none of her awards can do justice to the energy, skill, and devotion she brought to her beloved profession. (PsycINFO Database Record
