What a great man Uncle Matt was.He was always full of life and love and a real presence when entering a room. You knew well that he cared about those he loved and would give anything for them.

Knowing you are cutting a rug with your lovely Ruth now.

We will miss you. Watch over us all.

Love Ron and Sabine

We want to take this time to send our condolences to all of you. Our prayers are with you all especially today. We had a couple of occacions where we met grandpa Roach and he always had a huge hug and you couldn’t get away without a kiss. I know he will be sadly missed but he is now in a better place with Ruth

Dear Nieces and Nephews,

As you well know we are very sorry that you have lost your father. He was a very special man. However we all know he is happier where he is, with your mom.

We are deeply sorry that we are unable to attend the service but are thinking of you all.

Please accept our love and prayers.

Love Uncle Rob & Aunt Nicki

Sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Roach family.

Mary, Linda, Sharon, Sheila, Matt,Debbie and John… and all your others. I am so sorry for your loss.

Uncle Matt was out to see Dad in April and he was awesome. That is how I get to remember him. As the root to the family.

My heart is with you.

Always and forever! Deanna and Tanner

Although Matt and I were friends for only a couple of years in this residence, I feel priveliged to have known him and shared some frequent musical experiences with him. His contributions to the latter will be missed.

Just a few words to let you know that I, along with my familly, my children and my mother, Julieanne, are thinking of you all at this your time of need. Uncle Matt is with the love of his life now, and I hope that knowing that will be a great comfort to all of you. In your sorrow just remember all the good things he left you and as a family lean on each other. All our love and prayers are with you. Matt Roach

Sorry for your loss….. I really liked both Matt and Ruth

Uncle Matt was a true gentlemen, I had total respect for this man. He always treated everyone equally. From myself and my family, whom unfortunately did not have the pleasure of meeting him, we offer you our prayers, and love. He will always be there through your memories.
