of Harrison, AR
December 13, 1954 - March 15, 2026
Danny Roth had a life motto he lived out every second of his 71 years of life: ''Work when you work. Play when you play.'' And if you knew him, you knew he was exceptionally good at both working and playing. But the playing was always his favorite!
Danny was born to Jim and Joey Roth on December 13, 1954 in Fayetteville. Just days after his birth, his Dad and his Razorback Football teammates headed to Dallas to play in the Cotton Bowl. It is safe to say Danny's lifelong obsession with sports started at birth.
After a few years in Fayetteville, the Roths moved to Little Rock and then to Newport News, Virginia. But thankfully their strong ties to Arkansas reeled them back home. When Danny was 12 years old his family moved to Pine Bluff. He loved Pine Bluff and was incredibly proud to spend formative years of his childhood as a Pine Bluff Zebra. It is because of his time in Pine Bluff that Danny developed a deep appreciation for diversity, and seeing the beauty and value of friends and classmates who were different than him.
In 1971, the Roth family, now a family of five, moved from Pine Bluff to Harrison. It was challenging for Danny to move to a new town at the start of his junior year of high school. But his parents promised him there would be good friends and good basketball in Harrison, and they were right.
Harrison was a perfect playground for Danny and his two brothers, David and Boo. Their time in Harrison was consumed with Goblin athletics and the Buffalo National River.
After graduating as a Harrison Goblin, he attended the University of Arkansas. In 1973, he played on the Razorback Basketball team. He loved basketball, but realized that was not his future. It was then he transitioned his focus to the Phi Delt house and building lifelong relationships.
Danny was made for the 1970s. A time when fun was a bit reckless and rules were almost nonexistent. And for the rest of his life, rules were merely suggestions. He had a blast in Fayetteville and on his beloved Dickson Street. But even as a college student, he worked when he worked and played when he played.
After college, he moved back to Harrison to chase a career in real estate rather than working at Harrison House, his parents' clothing store. Harrison House is what brought the Roths to Harrison. But, more importantly, Harrison House is what brought Tammie to Danny. The most advantageous thing about Danny Roth's life was the moment his Mom introduced him to their new Harrison House employee, Tammie Moore from Marshall.
It did not take Danny long to know Tammie was the one. They were married at First Christian Church in Harrison in the summer of 1980.
For the next two decades their lives revolved around their two boys, Zack and Will. Danny was always the coach. Tammie was always the team Mom. The two of them provided everything they could for their boys, their boys' classmates and their boys' teammates.
Danny spent as much of his life as possible outdoors. He was happiest when he was in a canoe on the Buffalo National River, his secret fishing holes on Crooked Creek, the lakes of Canada, four-wheeler rides deep in the Ozark Mountains, in the woods hunting turkeys, or on a golf course. Nature always seemed like a way for him to connect with the Creator he believed in.
Appropriately, nature was also the backbone of Danny's 50-year real estate career with United Country Real Estate. He sold plenty of homes in Harrison, but that was not his passion. There was nothing he loved more than selling farms and big pieces of land in his beloved Ozarks. It was an ideal occupation for this hyperactive and insanely competitive person, all the while allowing him to spend countless days outside in the hills and mountains of North Arkansas.
Danny was fortunate to have two lifelong best friends that just so happened to be his brothers. The Roth boys shared a bond that was never shaken. They were all three Goblins, Razorbacks, Phi Delts, sports enthusiasts and nature lovers. They had their unique characteristics, but nothing came close to separating their love for each other. They were brothers who were friends, and friends who were brothers.
Another constant in his life was sports. There probably was never a day in his life where sports weren't involved in some capacity. If you had to list his top passions in life, there is no doubt the Harrison Goblins, the Arkansas Razorbacks and the St Louis Cardinals were on that list.
Another proud layer of Danny's life was his faith. He was extremely comfortable in his three beloved churches: First Christian Church in Harrison, Gilbert Christian Church and Central United Methodist in Fayetteville. Three places that mirrored his beliefs that a church should be rooted in love and welcoming to all. Faith to him was about casting a wider net, not a smaller one.
At age 58, Danny entered into what was, without a doubt, his favorite chapter. He excelled at being a dad, but he was made for being a grandparent. Being a grandparent allowed him to focus on all the fun. A role that was made for Danny Roth. The greatest gift he gave his kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews was his time. His uninterrupted, fully devoted time. If you ever wanted to play catch in the backyard, play a board game or play a card game, Danny's answer was always yes.
For 45 years, Danny and Tammie were a perfect pair. Danny liked to push the envelope, but Tammie always knew just the right moment to step in. It was a delicate balance they mastered very well. Tammie was Danny's wife, but she also held the occasional role as supervisor. They complemented each other so incredibly well.
Danny's favorite word was fun. He was always the last to leave the party. He was the first one on the dance floor. He cheered the loudest at the game. He was the one who found a way to have fun…and then have a little more fun… and then a little bit more. As his mother once said, ''Danny was the kid who thought he was an adult and the adult who thought he was a kid.''
Yes, he was a lifelong social chair. But it would be short-sighted to define him as someone who was only made for the parties and the good times. He knew when it was time to buckle up and get serious or sentimental.
The last two years of Danny's life were a cancer roller coaster. But throughout every diagnosis, every doctor's appointment and every surgery two things never wavered: his attitude and his belief. Cancer is the reason for his loss of life, but cancer did not win.
Danny is preceded in death by his parents, Jim and Joey Roth. He is survived by a humongous family that will eagerly carry out Danny's lifelong zest for life. His immediate family includes Tammie Roth; Zack, Kelsey, Aspen, Levi and Ellis Roth; Will Roth; David and Theresa Roth; Dylan and Bethany Roth; Tyler Roth; Boo and Beverly Roth; Jay, Savanna and Elsie Lou Roth; Luke and Meredith Roth. In addition, countless aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, sisters-in-law and brother-in-law.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Danny Roth Memorial Fund benefiting Consolidated Youth of Harrison. These generous donations will make sure there is no financial burden for any family whose child wants to play sports or needs equipment. Gifts can be sent to: Harrison Consolidated Youth / 113 Rush Avenue / Suite 101 / Harrison, AR 72601.
A celebration will be held Thursday, March 19 at 10:00am at First Christian Church in Harrison.
Danny Roth maximized every second of his 26,007 days on Earth. And he would want nothing more than for you to do the same. And remember: Work when you work. Play when you play!

Tammy and family,
I just read the wonderful tribute to Danny in the paper. I wish I had known him and had the opportunity to have spent time with him. The fact that he was the love of your life speaks volumes to me on the kind of person he was. I hope your memories, children, and family bring you comfort at this time for you. Based upon what I read, I would say that Danny is playing well in Heaven and having a great time rejoicing with others he loved. I love you Tammie Moore Roth and wish I was there to give you a hug.

Dear Roth Family,
Bobby and I are praying for peace and comfort for your entire family. Danny was a special person and loved by so many. But maybe just maybe right behind all the family who has gone before him, waiting to greet him, was my Aunt Ann Warren who thought Danny Roth hung the moon! We are forever grateful for how he helped her with real estate. For us, you always knew when you walked in a room if the ''Roth boys'' were around because everyone was always gathered around listening to whatever was being said! Heaven gained a great man that will be missed by so many! May your memories live on until you see him again someday! We love you all. Bobby and Rhonda Eubanks

Danny was a unique person that was special to all to say the least. Loved family, friends, ozark country, and our Lord. The Buffalo and Basketball, especially Razorback and Goblin fun times. He worked hard, played hard. Was smart with a Will Rogers sense of humor that everyone loved every time you were around him. I am grateful to have been his friend. Prayers for the family and all that were blessed to have known Danny. ❤️

On this day of Danny's memorial service my heart is heavy and sad. Danny's kind heart, love of life, family , Tammie and friends speaks to me of a life exceptionally well lived. We met Danny as he showed property to us in Omaha, Arkansas. There was an unexpected connection which led to a true friendship of 23 years with Danny and Tammie. In particular they had a love for our son, Bradley, who had many sleepovers with Danny and Tammie. Sleepover's usually consisted of doing crazy fun such as playing pool with a leaf blower, partying for the Cardinals games, swimming and 4 wheeling.
Danny was a gem of a person!
Paul, Brad and I will miss him deeply.

I heard about Danny's passing while listenting to the Razorback Daily podcast. When Coach Z mentioned that Will wrote his father's obit I just had to read. Wow! What a life well lived! Sad to see Danny's passing but I'm proud to have read about his life and his love for the Razorbacks. While reading the obit I found it almost eerie that many of the events and facts of his life parrallel with mine.
To Will, I'm sorry you lost your dad. I lost mine 5 years ago. God bless your family and your dad who is smiling at the Pearly Gates while being proud of his beloved Hogs! Woo Pig Sooie, my man! God bless!

I was so sorry to hear of Danny's passing. I have many fond memories of our freshman year in college on the basketball team, rooming next door to each other in the dorm, and the many weekend trips to Harrison to the Roth home.
I am sorry that I can't attend the service on Thursday but will be praying for you in your loss.
Even though we didn't get to see each other much over the past many years, I always considered Danny as one of my best friends from college.

I moved to Harrison December of 75, one the main reasons I moved to Harrison was a conversation I had with his dad Jim. As they say apples usually don't fall far from the tree. What fantastic family to stumble into, for me finding the Roth family has been life changing.
Danny was an ''all in'' guy, if you had Danny as your friend, he had your back! Not without challenges, because he wanted the best from everyone around him, unless you were fishing, golfing or doing anything competitive, then Danny wanted to WIN!
What a way to live a life, helping others excel by example, being the best that you can be at everything you do.
Danny and I shared a love of John Wooden's philosophy, if you've prepared properly, done all that you can, and performed at the best of your ability, that's a successful effort.
Danny, successful effort, you've made the cut!

Danny was such a wonderful neighbor, and I will always remember the kindness and warmth he showed"a friendly chat, a warm wave, and the joy he brought to everyone around him. I especially loved hearing the laughter and squeals of his grandkids as he fully immersed himself in soccer, baseball, and even the occasional wrestling match between our houses. It was clear how deeply he loved his family and how much joy he brought into their lives.
Tammie and family - Please accept my heartfelt condolences during this difficult time. He will be truly missed.

For the last 50 years plus, Gale and I have enjoyed visiting Harrison and the many friends we have there. We first met Danny about 20 years ago at 'A Place called Bear's Den'. Great times with Dano and Tammi at Christmas parties, ATV rides, ball games. Our grandsons played on the same basketball team this past season. My oldest son Cory was their coach. I was blessed to sit with Danny at their game two or three weeks ago. He told me it was so tough to be there that Saturday but no way was he going to miss watching Levi play ball.
I'm so sorry for this loss but happy for the family to have so many to lean on during this sad time.

Hate to hear this about Danny.
Some of you will remember the big bass photo from "Crooked Creek" Danny "caught"
When he told me the story about it we had an awesome laugh. I mounted the fish for him.
Rest in Peace Danny.
Condolences to his family.

I will always remember Danny Roth is always having a big smile and a big laugh. Yes he was the life of the party. I enjoyed getting to know him & Tammie at church. I will always remember the time of the Langston's daughter's wedding & everybody was calling it a night Danny and I wanted to go dancing at Raeford's in Memphis. We got voted out. He will be truly missed.

Jerry and I not only loved Danny, but the entire Roth/ Moore family. He had a zest for life, not evidenced by many. Danny's wishes to have memorials given to Consolidated Youth for sponsoring kids that need financial help to be involved in activities tells us all a lot about him and his family! We will always remember Danny for so many good things, love for his family at the top of the list. His ability to be a super businessman, husband, dad, grandpa, and friend to many will be remembered by so many people he touched in his too short life. Hats off to Danny for making all of us better human beings caring about others. We love you Danny…..forever.

What a beautiful, well written tribute to your Dad, Will. You always were a gifted writer. What a blessing for you and Zack to have such wonderful, supportive parents.
By the way, your Dad sold us this gorgeous piece of property where we have lived since 1998. We can see Boat Mountain, Pinnacle Mountain, Sulfur Mountain and of course Gaither Mountain. Yes, it was clear your Dad loved the outdoors, the Buffalo River, and of course Gilbert.
We will keep you in our prayers,
Randy and Sarah

Danny Roth and the entire Roth family have been good friends to the Tice's ever since we arrived in Harrison in 1982. Danny was a great supporter of Goblin Athletics. If a young athlete needed a new pair of shoes or a new set of clothes to wear to the prom and could not afford them, all we had to do was call Danny. He and Tammy would go to work on it. I called them my ''Goblin Angels''. The world is a lesser place without him in it. Rest in peace dear friend.

Tammie and all you wonderful Roths, I had no idea that Danny was even ill, much less for two years. I have no words, just complete empathy for the pain you are all feeling. We recently lost Cheri to cancer, and the loss cut us deep. We all loved. Danny, but he and Cheri had a special bond. I do hope they find each other in Heaven and have a great chat. I am thinking of all of you, and I pray God lessons your pain soon.

My deepest sympathy to Tammie and the entire family on the loss of Danny. He was one of the most precious men I have ever met and I was so lucky to have called him a "special friend". May God put his loviing arms around all of you in this sad time and give you strength to get through it. Love you and will be keeping you all in my prayers.
