    • Milton Roth

      It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Milton, our father, on September 30, 2016 at the Emerson Care Home in Manitoba. Milton was born in Wellesley, Ontario on May 29, 1923. He married Clara Ropp in 1945 and with their four daughters they moved to Scarborough, Ontario. He worked for many years at Suburban Metal Industries designing and selling straps and tie down equipment for the transportation industry. He is survived by his daughters: Diane (John) Macintyre (Tammie, Fiona, Connie and Glen) of Milton, Donna (Tony) Klassen, (Clarise, Nathan, Nevin, Juanita, Nadine and Vernon) of Gretna, Manitoba, Sharon (Allan) Gilbert (Colin, Wesley, Stuart) of Thunder Bay, Ontario, Sandy Schaaf (Candice, Hayley) of Barrie, Ontario and by many great grandchildren. Milton is survived by his sister, Barbara Zehr and brother, David Roth. He was predeceased by his parents, David and Barbara Roth, and, by his wife Clara, daughter of John and Emma Ropp, and by his brothers Elmer, Alvin, Mike, John and Ernie and by his sister, Nancy and by his son-in-law, Bob Schaaf. We would like to thank Donna, our sister, and her family for assisting Dad during his stay in Altona and in Emerson, Manitoba.
