It's a Roche Family Affair
August 31, 2009
Twenty -two students and alumni,all recipients of the Patty Roche Memorial Scholarship, stand with Bud and Eileen Roche (center) in Donahue Hall before a donor-recipient dinner. Within two years of graduating in 1984, their daughter Patty died from a brain tumor. In Patty’s name, Bud and Eileen established a scholarship that is awarded to students who have worked or whose families have worked for Roche Brothers Supermarkets. Since 1993, the Roche Scholarship has assisted 43 Stonehill students.
