The Roach Family

Leaving home to serve

The Roach Family in their own words.

Our story

Over 17 years ago I met my husband working at HEB. I was working as a cashier while he was in seafood. I love sharing the how we met story. While working as a cashier I was training a new employee. Everytime my husband (Robert) would walk up front to use the only bathroom in the store, I would make comments like “one day I’m gonna marry him”. The girl I was training would laugh but never agree how cute he was. A short time later I asked her why she never agreed with me or chime in on my silly comments. The answer she gave…. “he’s my cousin”. Never in my life thought someone could get me to turn as red as I did that day. We dated for a few years and then married when my husband decided to enlist in the Marine Corps. 15 years later we now have 4 beautiful children.

What the weekend would mean to us

We have not been back to Texas in over a year since moving from San Diego to North Carolina. This would give us a chance to go home and see family and winning would give us the honeymoon we never had and some quality time together that we rarely get.
