January 13, 2015

James A. Kroth, 81, of Liverpool, passed away on Tuesday after a brief illness. He was a life member of the Liverpool Vol. Fire Dept. He was involved in Scouting and a past member of IPMS Syracuse. He was a self-employed carpet installer for over 20 years, and worked for a local business management company prior to retiring.

He enjoyed fishing, camping, building plastic airplane and automobiles, and many various home improvement crafts. Always ready with a story and a joke, he was a permanent fixture at the CNY Regional Sunday Flea Market, an auction, or at a neighbor's fence. He was well-known in his neighborhood, ready to help plow and snowblow during a storm, put on a new roof, or lay new carpet.

He is predeceased by his wife of 55 years, Elizabeth; brother Bill; sisters, Marylou and Posie; and a nephew, Chris Kroth.

James is survived by his children, Karen (Charles) Wise and Andrew Kroth; two grandsons, Nate and Ben; sisters, Marlea Stagnitti and Noelle Lazarony; a brother, John Kroth; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Calling hours will be Saturday from 1-3 PM at New Comer Funeral Home, 705 North Main Street, North Syracuse, New York 13212. Services will follow at 3PM.

Contributions in lieu of flowers may be made to the Liverpool Volunteer Fire Department.
