Caleb Xavier Roach Obituary (2006 - 2012)

Caleb \u0027"Bubba\u0027 Xavier Roach, 5, Fort Yates, passed away Sunday, March 18, 2012, at Medcenter One, Bismarck. A Memorial Service will be held at 1:00 PM, Friday, March 23, 2012, in the A.J. Agard Memorial Building, Fort Yates, with a gathering of family and friends one hour prior to the service. Caleb was born on December 3, 2006, in Bismarck, North Dakota, to Ashley DeShawn Jacobo and Brett Charles Roach. Due to the disability he was born with, Ashley and Brett moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota, for medical services that were not offered here in North Dakota. Caleb had a long struggle with his rehabilitation and was starting to get better when during his last surgery; complications occurred that left him completely immobile. Caleb had the most beautiful eyes you ever saw and they were enhanced by long curly eyelashes. He seemed to look right into your heart. His smile did not come from his lips like most people; they came from his eyes. Even though God gave him only five short years of life here for his family to enjoy; he filled many hearts with memories that will live forever and he will be missed by everyone that was touched by his life. Caleb is survived by his mother and father, Ashley and Brett, his sister Cadence Isabella Teresa Roach, grandmothers, Janice Jacobo and Carol Standing Crow, his great-grandmothers Helen Hanley, Lillian A. (Laundreaux) Harrison, and Virginia (Holy Bull) Weaselboy; grandfather, Henry L. Harrison; great-grandfather, Henry G. Harrison; uncles, Jace Harrison, Gauge Harrison, Calen Alkire, and Joseph B. McNeil; his aunty Avy Uses Arrow, godmother, Martha Harrison; and many other family members and friends. He was preceded in death by great-great-grandmothers, Isabelle (Roach) Standing Crow and Teresa Rose (Cadotte) Hanley.
