Obituary
Randolph Francis Roth, 83, of Neenah, WI, went home to be with his Lord and Savior on June 11th 2026 at Appleton Medical Center. He was born on August 21, 1942 in Milwaukee to Rudy & Myrtle Roth.
Dad was a generous caretaker, attentively married for 58 years, and a selfless father for 57 years. He is survived by his wife Sharon Kodel Roth and daughters Amy Jo, Vicki Lynn, and Angie Kay. He is also survived by his trifecta of son-in-laws, respectively Richard Frost, Steve Guertin, and Lon Klinkenberg- as well as grandchildren Brianna (Zoe) Brown, Ryan (Abbey), & Brady (Ellie) Frost; Kayleigh, Austin, & Olivia Guertin; and Kaden & Karli Klinkenberg. He is survived by his sisters Roberta (Ron) Zientara & Romona (John) Zawikowski, and was preceded in death by his parents and infant daughter. He had a quick contagious humor, feet made for dancing, and a servant’s heart, blessing countless people throughout his days. He dedicated many years to his career as an accountant at A.O. Smith/Tower Automotives. Beyond his hard work and love of family, he was always ready for “the game of the year”.
We enter a season of celebration for Dad’s life, for we know he is healed and whole- hearing the precious words, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” We cling to the promise of eternity together through Jesus Christ. Our family was blessed with the gift of time together, surrounding him with prayer, song, gentle touch, and words of love in his final moments. This was a small reflection of the immeasurable love, care, and wisdom that he poured into each of us throughout his life.
Dad, we have loved you to the very end and always will. We give thanks for the gift of your life- your legacy of faith, family, service, and love will continue to live on in all who knew you. We would also like to thank all medical personnel at Appleton Medical Center- ThedaCare.
A visitation will be held on June 14th at 2pm with funeral to follow at 4pm at St Peter Church, N2740 N French Rd, Appleton, WI 54913. Randy will be laid to rest at Wisconsin Memorial Park.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to St. Peter Evangelical Lutheran Church in Appleton.
