The Fish fund was established by Oscar and Rosetta Fish. Rosetta Ramsey moved to Hawaii in the early 1940’s from Ohio; she was a Speech Pathologist, and taught speech at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. She then met and later married Oscar Fish, a successful self-made businessman, who also moved to Hawaii from the mainland. He was a member of the University of Hawaii’s College of Business Administration’s first graduating class in 1959. Before Oscar’s death in 1988, the Fish’s set up a scholarship fund to help students who are majoring in business. Before Rosetta’s death in 1994, she also started a fund with the Hawaii Community Foundation to provide assistance to families who have children needing speech therapy; she cared much about children with speech disorders.
