Gary Robert Roach

Gary Robert Roach, age 61, born on July 19, 1962. Raised in Runnemede, Gary graduated from Triton High School in 1981. He lived in Mullica Hill over 20 years before moving to Glassboro in 2017. Gary worked for Rapid Forms in West Deptford for 21 years and has worked as a Warehouse Manager for Lamb Company, Pedricktown since 2020. Gary was an avid Cowboys Fan but loved all other Philadelphia sports, except the Eagles.
Gary's smile was infectious. It lit up any room he walked into. He always had a positive attitude, and never had a bad thing to say about anyone. He was also always an exceptional father to Josh and loving partner to Lisa. They were best friends through thick and thin, and enjoyed their weekends together. Gary was someone who could be counted on at any time, for any reason because he was also an exceptional friend to all who knew him.
When Gary learned he was going to be a grandfather he was elated. He called Stella his "princess" and would talk about her to anyone who would listen, full of pride and excitement about her.
He was predeceased by his father Alexander Roach and niece Renee Kelly.
He is survived by his wife of 35 years Lisa (Romano), son Joshua Roach and his wife Bailee, mother Dorothy (Teubner) Roach, granddaughter Stella Lucia Roach, brothers Michael and Edward (Carmella) Roach, nieces and nephews Michael, Christopher, Melissa Roach and Mark and Matt Aquilino.
