Dr. Cusick, as a physician, was well liked, and had a large practice. He was a kind and generous husband and father. Those who knew him best loved him most. He was an active member of the Baptist church, and greatly interested in Sunday-school work. He was also a member in good standing in the Order of Odd Fellows.
