Alfred "Al" Roach

Alfred Thomas Roach, passed away on November 8, 2025, at the age of 96. Alfred was born on March 21, 1929, in Saint Paul, MN, but spent his later years in Greenville, SC, where he made countless memories with his family and friends.
Alfred was a dedicated Certified Public Accountant and served as the Treasurer for the Southeastern Synod, a role he embraced with passion and commitment. He loved numbers and brought precision to everything he did. But beyond his professional life, Alfred was a man of many interests. He had a genuine love for reading, especially about the Civil War, and he treasured his adventures traveling to new places, creating stories and memories to share with his loved ones.
Al was preceded in death by his parents, Thomas and Mary Roach, as well as his wife of 66 years, Rebecca Roach.
He is survived by his two sons, Thomas Roach (Melissa), and David Roach (Eva); and his cherished grandchildren, Thomas Roach (Giselle), Katherine Roach, Matthew Roach and David Roach. Each of them carries a piece of Alfred's spirit and wisdom and will remember him fondly.
Alfred proudly served in the U.S. Air Force, a testament to his dedication and love for his country. He will be missed by all who knew him, but his legacy will live on through his family and the many lives he touched.
Al's family recently gathered for a private prayer service.
