Kenneth Roth Obituary

Kenneth D. "Tony" Roth

September 21, 1931 - December 18, 2024

Tony was born in Kansas City and grew up in Omaha. He attended Northwestern University and graduated from UNO. He served in the Air Force as a Reconnaissance pilot where he earned the National Defense Service Medal. After the service he returned to Omaha where he and his father in 1959 built a building at 72nd and Dodge and founded Paramount Furniture and Appliance.

After selling the business he became a successful and respected Realtor for over 30 years. Tony enjoyed life and lived a caring, courageous and respectful life. He loved spending time with family and friends. The outdoors and the golf course were his two favorite playgrounds. His positive personality was contagious and the number of lives he touched are countless. His legacy of laughter and compassion will live on.
