We are sad to announce the passing of Charles Elton Roe of Cushing, Oklahoma. Charles passed away at home surrounded by family and friends after a courageous battle with cancer on May 1, 2024. He was born on September 8, 1952 in Cushing to parents Bob and Betty Roe. He graduated from Stroud High school and went on to attend college at Central State University where he received his bachelors degree in 1975. He spent many years working in the oilfield before changing directions and becoming a stockbroker. Years later he opened and ran a grocery store until retirement. During his retirement he enjoyed working on the farm raising cattle and buffalo.
His family will remember him as wellrounded man. He knew a little bit about everything, could fix just about anything and if he couldn’t, he would learn how. He valued hard work, honesty and the following through on a promise. He never met a stranger and would try to help anyone who needed it. He was quick witted, never at a loss for words and loved to tell a good story. He loved his family most of all.
Charles is survived by his loving wife of 48 years, Aneta as well as his daughter Charissa, her husband Henry Taylor, son Bobby Roe and his wife Andrea along with a total of 6 wonderful grandchildren.
A memorial For Charles will be held Friday, May 24th at 1:30 at the Stroud Church of Christ, in stroud.
