Mother’s tragic turnpike death leads to effort to protect other families
OHIO (WJW) — It’s been two years since a local mom and her unborn baby died in a devastating pile-up on the Ohio Turnpike.
Julie Roth was 37. Her unborn child did not survive. Her two toddlers did, but they were left unidentified for hours.
Roth was a travel nurse contracted to work at Cleveland Clinic.
Since that tragic December day, her family has made it their mission to keep families connected in emergency situations.

The ROTH ID TAG was created after tragedy struck our own family.
On December 23, 2022, Julie Roth, beloved wife and mother, was traveling with her two small children when they were caught up in a 47+ vehicle pile-up on the Ohio Turnpike. Julie and Edna Rose, the baby she was carrying, did not survive, but her two other children did.
Injured and afraid, Julie’s two toddlers waited many hours to see a familiar face while emergency responders worked to identify them and contact their father, who was at work. Thankfully, Ayla and Rory Roth are alive and well today. They are the true reason for the ROTH ID TAG™ creation.
