Irwin Roth

Irwin passed away in July 2019. Irwin was a resident of Pennsylvania at the time of passing. All of them then joined their father in his plumbing business, but Irv, a graduate of Fifth Avenue High School, soon decided to go back to school for the night courses at Pitt and Robert Morris College that prepared him for his lifelong career in real estate. As a proud member of the Army Air Corps, Irv was never seen in later life without a cap proclaiming him a World War II veteran and he became a charter member of the World War II Museum in New Orleans, making a visit there soon after its opening in 2000.
