John Joseph Roach

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Roach family. I was deeply saddened to hear of John's passing. I have many fond memories of John, including midget football and cheering for him on the Skeeters with Mrs. Roach as my cheerleading coach. My deepest sympathy to the family - you are in my thoughts!

To The Roach Family,
Words can't express how sorry we are for your loss. Although it has been some time since we have seen you guys, we remember the times that we shared together as the kids were growing up, playing little league ball, midget football and the graduations. We share in much love and sympathy to everyone. Sorry that can't be there in person but all of you are in our hearts and prayers.

The Powells,
Charles, Nancy, Charles, Marc and Derek ("Big D")

We send our deepest sympathy to the Roach Family and to our friend Betty Hough. We were saddened at the news.We had the pleasure of meeting John once. Sorry that we could not offer our condolences in person. Take care and God Bless You.

I have known John since he was a baby. I remember when he use to crawl under his parent's table and untie shoelaces earning him the nickname "Rotten John". All that was changed when he grew up. John would always stop and see me at work when he came back to Deptford. I was also honored to be a reference for him when he went for the Sheriff's Department. John will be sadly missed. My prayers go out to his wife, children, Mom, Dad, Brothers and Sister.

To John's wife and Mr. & Mrs Roach and family I was deeply sadened to hear of Johns passing. We have know each other since we were 5 years old we started school together. I saw John a few times after graduation. The teachers in grade school always called us John M and John R .You will be missed my friend . Your family is in my prayers.

My daughter Christina went to shool with John, and she remembers him well. She was very upset to hear of John's passing as we all were. I remember the family from St. John Vianney Parish were I was a CCD teacher. I also know John's sister Tina & her son from Most Holy Redeemer School were I have worked for 9 years.

We will keep John's wife & son in our prayers & especially his parents. Our hearts go out to you!

My heart is deeply sadened by this loss. Your family are in my prays. It seems like just yesterday John and Gena went to the senior prom. What a day..Ths usual hectic preparations.

I have known John and his family for
35 yrs. My son and John were best friends all thru grade school. John's Mom was my babysitter. John spent so much time at my home that he was like another son to me. I am devestated and I can only pray to god to help his parents and his family thru this tragic time. I have the fondest memories of John. He was such a wonderful boy.
