Doyle V. Roth, 96, of Logansport, IN (formerly of Pulaski, IN) passed away on Thursday, February 19, 2026 at Woodbridge Health Campus in Logansport. He was born on February 13, 1930 in Headlee, IN to the late Isadore V. and Gloria M. (Snow) Roth. Doyle graduated from Royal Center High School in 1948.

Doyle was a lifelong farmer who worked hard throughout his life. He was employed at the Thornhope Elevator for many years before taking a laborer position at RCA in Monticello, IN where he met his future wife, Joyce D. Poenix. On July 19, 1969, Doyle and Joyce were married in Watseka, IL. Doyle spent over 20 years at Wilson Foods in Logansport before retiring in 1992 and returning to farming.
