David A. Roe, 1947-2015

Dave lived a fulfilled life. He died Friday, July 10th, surrounded by his family in Spokane. He was born in Imperial, NE and was raised on a dairy farm. That hard working ethic followed him through his life. He worked for 50 plus years in the tire industry, managing the Ritzville Tire Center for the last 16. He loved serving this community and lending a helping hand. Dave made several friends over the last 67 years.

He had a wide variety of skill sets and hobbies. He enjoyed team penning and sorting. He also enjoyed pheasant hunting with his bird dogs and judging field trials. His keen, quick witted sense of humor and ability to always be right will truly be missed.

He is survived by his loving wife of 9 years, Robin. His last living brother Kevin. Two daughters Kim and Kristina. Three stepchildren Corey, Jonathan and Cari. And 9 grandchildren.

Per Dave’s request, no services will be held.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you make a donation to a Memorial Fund that has been set up in Dave’s name at Umpqua Bank. All donations will benefit the Lind-Ritzville/Sprague Athletic Department, as Dave loved to contribute and attend games regularly.
