Jimmy Dewayne Roach, age 59, passed away peacefully at his residence in Shiloh, Tennessee, on April 5, 2026.
Born on June 21, 1966, Jimmy was the son of Peggy Owens Roach and the late Jerry Roach. He spent the majority of his life working as a dedicated heavy equipment operator, a profession he took great pride in. For the past decade, he made his home in the Shiloh area, where he enjoyed the quiet beauty of the outdoors.
Jimmy had a deep love for nature and could often be found hunting, fishing, or trail riding in his Jeep. He cherished time spent outside and found joy in the simple pleasures of life, especially when shared with family and friends.
He is survived by his loving children: Timmy Roach of Michie, Tennessee; Carrie Millsaps (Joseph) of Arizona; Calvin Phillips; and Chelsea Phillips. He is also survived by his mother, Peggy Roach; his siblings, Rickie Roach, Gary Roach (Kim), Mike Roach (Linda), and Debbie Scruggs (Kelly); and his cherished grandchildren, Aiden Roach and Lilly.
Jimmy was preceded in death by his father, Jerry Roach, and the father who raised him, Raymond Roach.
Graveside services will be held on April 15, 2026, at 2:00 PM at Adamsville City Cemetery. The family will receive friends 30 minutes prior to the service.
