December 27, 2023
Joseph Albert Roth, aka “Captain Canuck”, “The Captain” and “Indy Joe”, left the race one day short of his 75th birthday.
The Captain was a colourful character, whose sense of humour was second to none. He made it his life’s mission to make others laugh and was happiest delivering punchy one-liners and witty poems in perfect timing about the people and things that mattered most to him. For Joe, drag racing and fast cars were the stuff that dreams were made of. During his youth, he traveled regularly to the States to watch his idols Big Daddy Don Garlits and Border Bandit Barrie Poole race at Indy. He fostered lifelong relationships with both racers and continued to follow the sport from afar in later years.
Joe accepted the things in life he could not change and worked hard to find humour in his day-to-day challenges. A nomad at heart, Joe crossed the border countless times throughout his life and held fond memories of the people and places that embraced him.
The Captain was notorious for coining catch phrases that will be forever famous – and enduringly hilarious – within our family. He is fondly remembered by his sister, Betty (Tom) Crummer of Millbank, brother Mike (Debra) Roth of Port Elgin, and many nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews.
Cremation has taken place and no formal services have been scheduled at this time.
As expressions of sympathy, and in lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be accepted to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, Canadian Mental Health Association of the Diabetes association and can be done through the funeral home.
