Born in Stockton and raised in the country outside of Lodi, Nevin Roe grew up living an ideal childhood. His dad was a hardworking mechanic, and he had a stay-at-home mom who babysat other children. He described it as the ‘white picket fence home, right around the corner from the neighborhood school’. He was an active and athletic kid who loved skateboarding, waterskiing, football and baseball. Nevin said, “I had a really good upbringing.”
