Ryan Roth-Ielmorini - Ryan died tragically in the early morning of February 23, 2012 in
Auburn CA; a true example of a life taken too soon. Ryan was the
youngest of six children born and raised in Petaluma, CA. He grew
up idolizing his older brothers (for reasons only a little brother would
understand) and was street smart beyond his years.
Ryan loved life and lived it full throttle. He was always diving head
first into the next wild adventure. Whether as a plumbing contractor,
Harley rider, dirt bike rider, wake-boarder, snow-boarder, or
horticulturalist, Ryan approached all things with a child like
enthusiasm and passion.
Ryan was a wonderful father and so proud of his two sons, whom
he cherished: Chase, age eight and Rafe, age six. He is also survived
by the other loves of his life: wife Heather Roth, his adored mother
Geraldine Ielmorini, brothers Rex Gibbs (Connie), Eric Gibbs (Gina),
Scott Gibbs (Carrie) and sisters Brenda Azevedo (Paul) and Heidi
Roth. Ryan was the son of Mike Roth, and a beloved uncle to nieces
and nephews: Blake, Sophia, Jake, Mia, Karli, Kerri and Nick. Ryan
was a true son of the Ielmorini Family of Petaluma and will also be
missed by aunts, uncles and cousins.
Ryan was a good friend to many. He will be missed dearly by
those that have been lucky enough to have had him touch their lives.
Services will be held at Parent-Sorensen Mortuary, 850 Keokuk
St., Petaluma, on Saturday March 3 at 1:00 p.m. Following will be a
celebration of his life at the Elks Lodge, Petaluma.
Ryan was the happiest when he was with his two boys and felt
they were his lifeâ??s biggest accomplishments. In lieu of flowers, a
trust fund has been set up for Chase and Rafe Roth at Chase Bank.
