Gerald P. "Jerry" Roth, age 75, of Celina, Ohio, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, at Celina Manor.

He was born on March 13, 1951, in Mercer County to the late Ralph and Ruth (Bergman) Roth.

Jerry is survived by his brother, Thomas Roth of Celina; his niece, Andrea (Erik) Seiser of Kettering; and his great-nephews, Nathan and Brady Seiser, also of Kettering.

He was a 1970 graduate of Immaculate Conception Catholic High School in Celina and went on to earn an associate degree in liberal arts from Wilmington College in Wilmington, Ohio. Jerry dedicated many years of his working life to McKirnan Brothers in Celina and later worked as a cook at the Waffle House in Wapakoneta, where he was well known for his strong work ethic and friendly presence before retiring.
