Thomas Jerome Roth

12 October 1934 to 14 June 2021

Tom and family were in Denver and subsequently in Colorado Springs for over 48 years.

Tom was a registered pharmacist for 50 years and practiced in several local pharmacies in Colorado Springs. Also, a number of years in veterinary pharmacy in Monument, Colorado.

He received a Bachelor of Science degree from the School of Pharmacy at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. In his younger years, Tom enjoyed fishing, hunting, farming, climbing, camping and Boys Scouts as a leader.He was a Mason, and a Master competetive marksman and shooter. He was also an Air Force ROTC Cadet of the Year. His siblings include, sister Charlene (deceased), sister Cathy of Williamsburg, VA and brother David Roth of Alexandria, VA.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Eleanor Roth and his grandmother, Miss Limback. He married Carolyn (Westfeld) Roth on 7 April, 1956. For his wife, Carolyn, of over 65 years, she was his pride, joy, and lifeline. He was so very proud of his three children. Tom is survived by his wife, Carolyn, and children Chip (Lisa) of Huntsville, Alabama; Porty (Carleen) of Colorado Springs and Sally (Bob) of Erie, Colorado. Tom and Carolyn are blessed with 6 grandchildren (Elise and Sophie; Joshua and Jacob; Garrett and Luis) as well two great grandchildren, Caleb and Franklin Hugh.

Tom was a very gentle man, a very kind man and a very caring man. He led a life of service.

Tom requested that there be no service nor memorial. We will lovingly scatter his ashes on the top of Pikes Peak.

All our love always and beyond.

We moved here about a year and a half ago, living right across the street. Tom would never miss the opportunity to wave, smile and ask how we were. We’ll miss seeing him out watering his flowers.
Our deepest sympathies to all of you on your loss. It sounds like Tom led a full life and leaves behind a large and loving family. Rest In Peace Tom. We’ll miss you.
