  Beloved son and brother Tony Joseph Roche of Longview died Jan. 20, 2015, at home of natural causes. He is now in the loving arms of Jesus. He was born June 29, 1974, in Auburn, Wash., to John and Marcia Roche. He attended St. Rose School and Longview public schools, graduating from R.A. Long High School in 1992. As a youth, he enjoyed playing baseball, snow and water skiing and camping with friends. Following high school he completed the Lower Columbia College welding program and spent 20 years in the steel fabrication trades. As an adult, Tony enjoyed fishing, hunting, digging clams and other outdoor activities. His love for animals was over the top, and music was a large part of his world. He enjoyed many musical styles and was self-taught on the guitar. Tony is survived by his parents; two brothers, David in Rochester, Wash., and Aaron in Longview; his companion of 12 years, Liz Ford, and her daughters, Rose Beth and Megan; his loving uncles and aunts, Pat and Susan Sari of Longview, Ron and Joann Parsons of Kelso, and Mike and Jenny Heaton of Mason Lake, Wash.; eight fabulous cousins who were the best friends one could ask for; and many longtime and loyal friends who loved him. He will be greatly missed. A graveside service is planned for 11 a.m. Saturday at the Longview Memorial Park mausoleum. Tony was a casual guy, so come casual. A celebration of Tony's life will be announced at a later date. Memorial contributions may be made to the Humane Society of Cowlitz County, P.O. Box 172, Longview, WA 98632. Arrangements are by Steele Chapel at Longview Memorial Park & Crematory.
