Carla M.

Roach

Carla Mercedes (Brown) Roach, 61, died peacefully in her sleep on July 30, 2022 at home. She was born October 15, 1960 in Indianapolis, IN, the daughter of Howard L. and Alice (Johns) Brown.

Carla lived a full life of love and adoration for her family. She was a wonderful daughter, wife, mother, mother-in-law and aunt. She was fascinatingly smart and a skilled Euchre player. Of all the titles she held, being Mamaw to her six grandchildren was the most important to her. She loved her grandkids fiercely and beamed with pride every time she was around them.

She was predeceased by her father, Howard L. Brown. Surviving in addition to her loving husband, Dan, are her mother, Alice, of Greenwood, IN; sons Matthew and his wife Kendall, of Thomasville, Cory and his wife Kristi, of Greenwood, and Casey and his girlfriend Shelby, of Savannah; daughter Danielle and her husband Brent, of Chattahoochee, FL,; six grandchildren, Kaila Roach, Codin Roach, John Louis Roach, Lennon Roach, Parker Roach, and Henry Thomason; brothers, Scott and his wife Laurie, of Greenwood, and Kenton and his wife Lydia, of Greenwood; one sister, Darla, of Greenwood; many nieces and nephews.

No funeral or memorial service is immediately planned; the family will notify loved ones in the future when a service is planned. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in remembrance of Carla to the Lupus Foundation of America.
