Phyllis Elaine Cochran Roche

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. John 14:1 our Heavenly Father cares for us.

My wife Viola and I met Phyllis and her husband (the cropduster) in the early 80's because my parents (Edna and Carlton Martin) recommended her as a good "tax lady"...and in fact, she did our taxes quite a few years; and for my parents, and father up through 2013. I always enjoyed reading her letters to the Editor in the Lodi Sentinel; and, smiled when I read her latest in the paper dated July 26, 2016, and, as usual, I found that I agreed with her comments and viewpoint. Then, I was...

I have so many Great Memories of Phyllis and the Entire Family, I grew up around the Roche Family , I have so many wonderful Memories on Tecklenburg Road and the fun exciting Trips, Plays, Musicals, and the overall support you felt around Her was a true blessing , Thank you Phyllis for your guidance and support for all of those years,

I pray for comfort and peace for your whole family. Phyllis was a wonderful lady, and will be sorely missed. Praise be to the God she loved, who keeps her in the palm of His hand.

Rest in peace and rise in glory, Phyllis!! Our love & condolences to the Roche family.

My sympathy to the family. Her children and grandchildren will
miss her. She supported them all enthusiastically.

I am so sorry to hear of Phyllis' passing. What an amazing lady and I am so honored to have called her my friend. As mentioned, one of her many legacies is she helped save Lodi from the pitfalls of RDA and future debt of nearly 45 million to the taxpayers of this city. What a victory! My thoughts and prayers to the family during this time of great loss. My you hold your many dear memories of Phyllis close to your heart to help celebrate a life so well lived.

Dear Cochren/Roche Family, I myself did not know her directly,but I knew her from St.Anne's,at the 10:30am Mass, making sure All Her Grandchildren were Not misbehaving. I believe I also met her at other places,but she was a pleasure to Be Around!! The Roche's have Fond Memories Of Their Mom,and Phyllis(same as My Own Mom's),had just met her 2nd Grand Daughter,Marie. Blonde curly hair and Blue Eyes. What A True Charmer. I Myself No Longer have My Parent's(With God Also),And Believe Her Spirit...
