Visitation was at Bethel Baptist Church in Liberty Wednesday, April 28, from 3 p.m. until memorial service at 6 p.m. with the Rev. Dusty Rhodes officiating.
Mr. Roshto was born in Baton Rouge. His family moved to Liberty in 1999. He was a great husband and father. He never met a stranger and befriended everyone. He was an inspiration to his friends and family. Mr. Roshto loved his job. He was ambitious and had a strong work ethic. Even after over three years working on the rig, his co-workers tended to "baby" him because of his young age.
