Angela Roth Obituary

Angela left this world surrounded by her family on Sunday, October 2, as she joined her heavenly Father after a long and courageous struggle with cancer. For Angela, to live was to love. She celebrated this passion in her daily life through her family, friends, faith, music, pets and flowers. She dedicated her life to being a loving mother of six children. Her loving legacy also includes her husband of 33 years; ten grandchildren; and one great-grandchild. Angela's love will endure within the hearts of her children's children's children. She will always be remembered for her warmth, caring and a smile that could light up a room. She will be deeply missed as our loss is God's gain. Angela's life will be celebrated at St. Patrick's Catholic Church, 6455 Brook Park Drive. A wake will begin Thursday, October 6, at 5:00 p.m., followed by a rosary service at 7:30 p.m. Angela's funeral mass will be on Friday, October 7, at 10:00 a.m., reception and graveside service will follow. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Leukemia Society.

Just thinking of Angela is like praying under the starry lit night. I always felt so loved after our visits and on the ride home I named the stars. She loved the outdoors, all of God's creation. She loved everything and everyone. She loved so much everyday. Her passion has been passed on to all who ever met her. I feel blessed to have returned to nursing and will think of her often.

There are no words to express my sadness upon learning of the passing of Agela. She was an exceptional person and I consider myself very fortunate to have known her. Please accept my most sincere, heartfelt, sympathy.

I grew up knowing Mrs. Roth (Angela) as my second Mom, and the whole Roth family as my second family.



The fondest memories of my boyhood come from our many visits where our families would drive 100 miles in either direction between Boulder and Colorado Springs, and spend an entire day together.



On more than one occasion, I would go up to stay with the Roths for a week long visit, and I will never forget the atmosphere of love and good natured sibling rivalry in that house set on 10 acres in the Black Forest. It often reminded me of the Waltons, and I always credited this to Angela's devotion to her family. She was the ultimate family manager who somehow managed to keep it all together while driving six kids in a VW Bus to scout meetings, guitar lessons, camping trips, wrestling matches - the list goes on and on. It occurs to me now that she had all the qualifications to become a Fortune 500 CEO.



Although I have lost touch with my second family after leaving Colorado so many years ago, I am profoundly moved and saddened by Angela's passing. I want to send my most heartfelt condolences to all the Roths, and let them know that I share this heavy sorrow.



As a Christians, I have the certain assurance that Angela is with the angels and her Savior now - lucid, happy, and absent of any pain. Her faith and spirituality were always as genuine and authentic as anyone I've ever known.



My grief is not directed toward her, then, but toward myself - for all the opportunities I squandered to simply pick up the phone and tell her how much I loved her, and what a huge part she played in my upbringing.



God bless you, Angela! Godspeed!

Angela will always be remembered as a very special person in our lives. Her family and mine moved west to Colorado to seek new opportunities on the same day. We have always felt it was part of God's plan for our families to meet and grow in very special ways over the next 47 years. My 3 daughters and our son all remember happy times spent together with the Roths enjoying each other.

Angela will always be remembered for her love of music and sharing that joy with others. I especially enjoyed our playing duets on our accordians.

For me, Angela was an inspiration and a person to try to emulate in my life. I know that God will have one more willing servant in His flock of Christian believers.

Angela's passing brings the end of an era for us. So many years, so many memories. Two couples from Chicago meeting for the first time, excited to begin a new life in the West. Jobs for the husbands at Martin COmpany, working with the new Space Program, making history in the United States.

Set against a background busy with babies, good food, good music, laughter, singing--all shared in friendship. Those things are the glue that hold us together and the memories sustain us all forever.
