Not sure what to say?

Professor Roach was my favorite and best teachers I've ever had. He was nice, cool, funny, and was a genuinely good at his job. He was the only teacher in JJC to remember me. Recently I have decided to go back to JJC to finish getting my Associates, and was heartbroken to find out he has passed away last year. I will definitely miss him and I wish him and his family the best and my condolences.

My friend since I was a baby, he was like the oldest brother I never had, Jesse the older, Michael the younger, and Laura.

I am just finding out about the loss of your son. My heart aches for Sue and her family. I´m a second cousin to Sue. My daughter passed away Nov 2021, age 25. They are both angels in heaven and our guardian angels on earth. Sincerely, Donna Kabat

Dear Roach Family ( just found out ) we can´t imagine such wonderful family lost your son Carl we are speechless and to think the horrific pain your family going through. We are sending our Deepest Sympathy and pray God will help you in this difficult time and we pray that such good looking, people loving and smart human being Rest In Peace, Amen

Carl was like a big brother to me as a kid and I always looked up to him. He was responsible and wise but also could be silly and a lot of fun. My best memories from him are from the venturing summer camps he and his siblings came to. I always looked forward to camping with them and hanging out at our house before and after. Carl was the coolest guy and influenced me a lot in my teenage years. We love him and miss him. May his memory be eternal

I didn't know Carl as well as some, but I have nothing but nice memories of him as a colleague at JJC. He always had a smile on his face, and he had a way of making you want to smile, too. He is missed.

Tom and Sue and family, I am so, so , sorry for your loss. I pray that the beautiful memories your beautiful son come to you just when you least expect them and when you most need them. May his memory be eternal.
