Annasue Rocha Obituary
Annasue "Annie" Rocha, 19, of Elkhart, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, Jan. 27, 2025. She was born in Elkhart on July 16, 2005, to Jose D. Rocha and Sofia Reyes Sanchez.
Annie is also survived by her siblings, Maribel (Justin) Rocha Reyes, Noelle Claros Reyes, and Jose Alanzo Rocha; niece, Lillyana; father, Jose (Nancy) Rocha; mother, Sofia (Noe) Reyes Sanchez; cousins, Daniel Franco, Luis (Raysha) Gerrardo, and Mayra Gorrola; aunts, Mercedes (Mario Franco) Reyes and Maria Panye; uncles, Augustine (Maria) Rocha, Fausto Rocha, Aureliano (Patricia) Rocha; and close friends Natalie Rodrigez and Valente (Claudia) Rodrigez.
Family and friends are called to gather for a visitation on Friday, Feb. 7, from 10 a.m. to noon at Northside Church of the Nazarene, 53569 C.R. 7, Elkhart, IN 46514. A service will begin at noon at the church following visitation with Pastor Tim Sheets officiating. Annie will be laid to rest at St. Vincent's Cemetery immediately following the services.
Annie was the most understanding, kind, and loving person with a bubbly personality. She had an infectious laugh and a smile that could light up a room. Annie always wore a warm and welcoming smile on her face and had a witty sense of humor. She was an incredible artist who enjoyed drawing and putting to paper all the dreams she had on her mind.
In her spare time, she enjoyed spending time with her cousins and visiting some of them in Chicago. Annie enjoyed spending time at the University Park Mall with her friends and siblings, especially when she could peruse the aisles of FYE and Hot Topic. Spending time with all of her family at reunions brought her the most joy. Annie will be greatly and sorely missed by all her family, friends, and those lives she touched within her community.

Annie was the nicest cashier. I remember a time when I came in shopping with my girls and she told Zoey she loved her outfit. ( Zoey was dressed like she was Emo. ) it really made my Zoey smile and she loved going into martins in hopes to always get Annie . Were praying for her family and friends and Co workers. Annie's legacy will live on. She will always be the Light in our Dark World. May this devastating tragedy shed light on our community and bring peace to the ones who deeply need it to move forward

I started seeing Annie on the registers in January. She seemed shy so it took a few times to get her to laugh. Her smile was beautiful, her personality was beautiful, she had light in that soul and it showed. How proud you must be of her. My prayers, my wishes want her to rest in peace. She made an impact on me. May we live kindly in this world to honor her.
