Darin DeRoche Obituary
Darin was born on December 20, 1992 in Manitowoc to Randall and Cheryl (Holschbach) DeRoche. After graduating from Mishicot High School with the class of 2011, he went on to obtain his Bachelor's Degree from UW Green Bay. Darin had held various positions in the manufacturing industry and was about to start a new opportunity at Riverside Foods as Production Supervisor. He truly enjoyed bow hunting and playing golf. Darin was fortunate enough to shoot a few deer and accomplish two holes-in-one in his lifetime. He was an avid sports fan and especially enjoyed the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Cubs. If you had a conversation with him about sports, Darin would give you details about a game that occurred several years ago.
He will be remembered for his quiet demeanor and big heart. Before his son was born, Darin was blessed with a step daughter that he took under his wing as his own when she was just a month old. He was then blessed with a son that is the spitting image of him. They meant the world to him.
Survivors include Darin's son, Colson; step daughter, Malia; parents, Randy and Cheri DeRoche; two sisters, Carissa (Scott) Dembraski, and their son, Kaileb; and Shelby (Kevin) Bundy, and their children, Turner, Stellan, and Ellison; also aunts, uncles, cousins, other relatives and friends.
Alcoholism is a disease that often hides in plain sight. Like cancer, heart disease, or diabetes, it changes the body and the brain over time, and isn't a failure of willpower or character. It affects not just the person struggling, but everyone who loves them. If this is something you or your family are facing please know that help exists and you don't have to face it alone.

My deepest condolences to you and your family. While I never had the privilege to really meet Darin, the small interaction that I had with him he seemed like a delight to be around and always was smiling. I pray your family finds peace with his passing. And thank you for spreading awareness on his behalf.

As a small boy, he would come over to our timeshare every year! I always looked forward to seeing him and his sister. As he grew older, I would see him and his Dad on the golf course together. We'll miss that big smile!
My prayers for the whole family!
