With heavy hearts, the family of Verna Jean Roth announces her passing on January 12, 2025, at the age of 75. She peacefully left us at home, surrounded by her loving husband, William (Bill) Roth, son Mark Roth, and grandson Harley Roth.
Verna was born on June 9, 1949, in Cincinnati, Ohio to Norbert and Dorthy Gannon. She grew up in Cheviot, Ohio, before moving to Delhi, Ohio, where she spent the majority of her life.
A talented and creative soul, Verna had a passion for sewing and crocheting. She was especially known for making cherished baby blankets for family and friends.
