Obituary of Matthew Childers Roth

Matthew C. Roth left this life too early, the result of an accident. He went home to be with his Lord and Savior on September 7, 2020. He leaves behind to cherish his memory the two loves of his life, fiancée, Julia Yeakley and infant son, Greyson Roth; parents, George and Leah Roth of Hudson; siblings, Jeff Roth and Julie Roth of Houston, TX; and grandmother, Shirley Childers of Campbell, MO. He was predeceased by his maternal grandfather, Wilton (Bill) Childers of Campbell, MO and his paternal grandparents, George and Anita Roth of Medina. Matt grew up in Hudson and graduated from Hudson High School. Following high school he attended Virginia College/PGA Academy, where he earned his AAB. Most recently he graduated from Akron Barber College and had eagerly begun a career as a barber and creative stylist. He was known for having an adventurous spirit and enjoyed life to the fullest. He could be found outdoors on the golf course often with his dad, helping a friend with a project, or encouraging someone with a problem. Matt loved being a father and could not wait to show his son the world. Many around him were deeply impacted and encouraged by Matt’s candid sharing about the faith journey that brought him through dark times.
