Publish in a newspaper

ROTH, Robert. October 19, 2025. Age 80. Beloved husband of Mary for 53 cherished years. Loving father of the late Robert Jr. (Aimee), Michael, the late Matthew, Eric, Tara (Brandon) Harwood, and Tim (Hannah). Proud and adored grandfather of Ashley, Kayla, Brandon, Macy, Karina, John, Michaela, Arianna, Jacob, Dylan, Megan, Kaitlyn, Samuel, and great grandfather of Lucas, Aleia, Ellie, Kinsley, and Maverick. Dear brother of Karole (James) Thorsten and the late Kathy (Jack) Bostrom. Cherished uncle of many nieces and nephews.

Love in action.

The life Robert lived was marked by tremendous love - for his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, for his beloved wife, children, grandchildren and for his country. He lived out his devotion with years of consistent, faithful service.

He proudly served his country in the Air Force during the Vietnam War and was a lifelong patriot.

A faithful church member, Robert was a joyful servant. He demonstrated having a servant's heart, gladly serving and helping in any way he could.

Robert's lasting legacy is the outpouring of love he had for his family, notably his wife, kids and grandkids. He always described his loving wife Mary as "his better half." He was a devoted fan at countless soccer, softball, baseball, basketball or volleyball games. He cherished the memories he made with his loved ones on many family vacations and camping trips. He always recalled with fondness his experiences with the YMCA Indian Guides, Boy Scouts and Royal Rangers. He especially loved the whitewater rafting trips he took with his boys and many trips to the Great Smoky Mountains.

Robert was a hard worker that strived to provide for his family. He sacrificed and gave selflessly for the needs of his family.

While he took his commitments seriously, he infused every interaction and conversation with humor. He loved to joke and laugh and he loved making others laugh.

Visitation Monday, October 27th, from 3-8pm with a 10am Funeral Service on Tuesday, October 28th, at Wujek - Calcaterra & Sons Inc., (Shelby) 54880 Van Dyke at 25 Mile Rd. Please share memories with the family at their online guestbook at WujekCalcaterra.com
