Anderson Carroll Roth, age 3, passed away Monday morning, December 4, 2017. He was surrounded by his adoring family as he passed into Glory, where he is now sitting on Jesus' knee.

Anderson was born to Andrew and Emily (Cochran) Roth of Newark, OH on October 6, 2014. He was born with the orphan condition, Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome. In spite of enduring multiple surgeries, procedures, and long hospital stays, Anderson was a continual source of sunshine to all who had the privilege of knowing him. Anderson loved to play on his swing set, hug his dog, swim, and pretend that he was a farmer. He had a special fondness for cows and Lay's potato chips.

In addition to his parents, Anderson is survived by sisters, Caroline Grace, Hannah Abigail, Gillian Victoria and Lucy Catherine, all of Newark; grandparents, Ronald and Viki (Talbott) Cochran of Fredericktown, OH and Paul and Judith (Partee) Roth of Bonita Springs, FL; and doting uncles, aunts and cousins.

Friends and family may call 2-4 p.m. and 6-9 p.m. Friday, December 8, 2017 at Bible Baptist Church, 50 Price Rd., Newark, OH.

Memorial services will be 4:00 p.m. Saturday at the church with Pastor Paul Reimer officiating.

The family would like to extend special thanks to Bible Baptist Church, Christian Family Educators of Licking County, Licking Memorial Hospital and Nationwide Children's Hospital for being a part of Anderson's journey.

Memorial contributions may be made to Nationwide Children's Hospital Foundation, P.O. Box 16810, Columbus, OH 43272-5117.

To God Be the Glory!
