Roach died just two weeks after he married his wife Jennifer.
“It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of David Roach,” the band said.
After a courageous battle with cancer, David passed away peacefully last night at home, in the loving arms of his wife.
He was a gifted artist, performer, songwriter, and singer—but above all, a devoted father, husband, and brother.
Our thoughts are with the entire Roach family and everyone who loved him.”
In June, Junkyard shared a social media post explaining that Roach’s cancer was “aggressive.”
Roach and Jennifer were said to be shattered by his cancer diagnosis.
“It’s devastating and life-altering, and we’re trying to navigate through the emotions and uncertainty that come with it,” she wrote on social media.
“David is showing such incredible strength and resilience, and even in the midst of this darkness, he’s still managing to keep his sense of humor. It’s a reminder of how amazing he is.
“But we know this journey ahead will be extremely tough, David made it clear he is not giving up hope and we’re going to need all of your love and prayers.”
