Barth (Bart) William Doroshuk
September 19, 1955 - January 1, 2010

Bart was born in Havre de Grace, Maryland and lived many places during his life. He spent several years during his childhood in Woodbury where he enjoyed being close to family. Woodbury had always been a special place, his hometown, a place of family roots.

Bart graduated from Annapolis in 1978 and began his career in the nuclear industry by serving in nuclear submarines. Bart led the first license renewal for a nuclear power plant when he was at Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant and then went on to be a leader at Constellation Nuclear Services.

After battling cancer, Bart changed occupations and moved into the health field; he became a driving force in developing a fully computerized medical practice with his wife Dr Catherine Picken in the Washington DC area. He was recognized for his accomplishments by participating in a conference sponsored by President George Bush and was invited to travel in Air Force One.

Most recently, Bart founded a non - profit company to assist in the development of awareness for late deafened adults and to provide assistance to returning veterans who had become deaf due to IEDs.

He is survived by his wife, Catherine Picken of Bethesda, Maryland and his daughters, Megan and Rebecca Doroshuk, also of Maryland as well as his mother Nancy Bennington of Woodbury, and, most recently, of Portland, Maine, a sister Lisa (Doroshuk) Creighton and her husband Jack Creighton of Cohasset, MA, a brother Christopher Taylor of Bethlehem, his aunt Judith Plummer of Woodbury, and, most recently, of Westbrook, Maine and his cousins Dale Plummer of Norwich, Ct and John Plummer of Waterbury, Ct; Dana Plummer of Maine; Charlie Hinkley of Seattle, Washington; Alex Elizabeth Taylor and Zoo Cain of South Portland, Maine; and Lucy Littlejohn of Carmen, Idaho.
