Obituary of David John Roth

ROTH, David John October 15, 1974-December 6, 2020 “Every day is a beautiful day.” Passed away at Lakeridge Health Oshawa at the age of 46. Dave leaves his wife, Michelle and two children, Dustin and Julia. He is survived by his loving parents, Lynn and John Roth. Beloved brother to Jenny Archer, brother-in-law, Jason Archer and their two children, Jayme and Brandon. Son-in-law to Warren and Ingrid Beacom and brother-in-law to Sherry Croteau and Andrew Beacom. He will be sadly missed by his many cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews. Dave was an employee at Costco Wholesale Ajax and Oshawa for 25 years. Known for his infectious laugh and love for life, Dave brought such happiness to his countless friends, especially the “Friday night guys” who became brothers to him. After being diagnosed with colon cancer in 2018, Dave started an Instagram support group for others battling colon cancer. He provided encouragement, love and support, as well as many laughs. Sincere thanks to the entire staff at Oshawa Lakeridge Hospital and most appreciative for the special care given by Nurse Julie, Dr. Rothenstein, Nurse Sharron, Dr. Iqbal and Dr. Irish. Forever grateful to Nurse Jide. A celebration of life will be set at a later date in Haydon, at the Community Hall. Haydon is where Dave lived and had the fondest childhood memories at his grandparents’ farm, where he later resided with his family for 17 years, and recently built his beautiful dream log home. Condolences will be received by Northcutt Elliott Funeral Home: northcuttelliott.com.
