BGSU Athletics Mourns the Passing of Kerm Stroh

The Bowling Green State University athletics family mourns the passing of Kermit "Kerm" Stroh. Stroh, who earned an honorary doctorate from BGSU in 2002 and was named a BGSU honorary alumnus in 2003, is a 2022 inductee into the BGSU Athletics Hall of Fame. His transformational support continues to impact countless student-athletes, coaches and teams at the University.

Stroh helped co-found Moulton Gas Service Inc., with his father Elmer Stroh in 1958 in Wapakoneta, Ohio. Over the years, the company was developed by the family, and later expanded to provide approximately 21 million gallons of retail propane annually to 23,000 customers from four retail locations and 11 satellite plants in Ohio.
