Henry Roth II passed away on Sunday, the 25th of April 2021, after a short illness. He was a devoted husband to Jeanne and a wonderful father to Cathy.

After graduating from St. Andrew’s School in Middletown, Delaware, Henry attended Princeton University, graduating as a Civil Engineer. Over the next 50 years as a certified Professional Engineer, he helped construct buildings from skyscrapers to single-stories with Raymond International Builders and Aviles Engineering.

Henry was an active member of Christ Church Cathedral, serving as Clerk of the Works for many years. He especially enjoyed the friends, the history & the choral descant of the Cathedral Choir.

His parents, Gertrude S. Roth & Clyde C. Roth and his brother Robert S. Roth precede him in death. His wife of 60 years, Jeanne A. Roth and his daughter, Catherine L. Roth, survive him.

Henry’s ashes will be interred in the Columbarium at Christ Church Cathedral. A private memorial service will be held at a later date.

In lieu of customary remembrances, his family requests with gratitude that memorial contributions in his name be directed to the Christ Church Cathedral Endowment Fund at https://www.christchurchcathedral.org/stewardship/ (or simply select the icon below).
