Ronald R. Roch

Coach was part of our extend family. He was a guide and mentor to my brother John and helped him flourish in the sport he loved. Wrestling was in my families blood and Coach Roch was an integral part of that history. He was an amazing man and both John and I cared about him very much. We send our deepest condolances to the entire Roch family.

To the entire family of Ronald Roch,
I offer my condolence regarding Ron's passing. I met Ron via his tenure as Co-Director of the Carthage Farmers Market when he hired me to perform music. During our many enjoyable conversations, I got the chance to learn a great deal regarding Ron's remarkable lifetime accomplishments. He was truly an extraordinary individual, and it was always a pleasure for me to chat with him. He'll be missed by all who had the good fortune to share time with...

My sincere condolences to Ron's family. I was a co-worker and coach at CCS and I always had fond memories of my times with Ron. R.I.P. dear friend.

Coach Rock ,the things you taught us in wrestling were really life lessons .I can still hear him saying (what are you doing get off your back). Thank you.....

We have not had the honor of meeting Mr. Roch but his grandson Joseph is our son-in-law. The history of your life is amazing and may you rest in peace.

Mr. Roch was my elementary phys. ed instructor in Watertown about 60 years ago. I ran into him many many years later through our mutual involvement in the Church. A very fine Catholic gentleman.

Ron was a wrestling referee and coach in the same era as my husband,
Dave Adams. Ron was a respected force in both those roles as he taught the young men of central NY.
Gratitude for your devotion. Penny Adams

Coach Roch was my first wrestling coach which in turn introduced me to the sport of wrestling. He meant so much to all of us want to Be's. I will be forever thankful for his patience and support when it was so badly needed. Thank you coach....RIP.
