About Steve Roe

Steve Roe is the general manager of Roe Motors - a GMC dealership in Grants Pass, OR. Over the past 50 years, Steve has worked in nearly every department of this second-generation, family-owned business. His motto is \"a car dealer working to make a positive difference in the community.\" Under Steve’s leadership, Roe Motors earned the 2016 Better Business Bureau “Business of the Year” for Oregon and SW Washington and the Roe family was selected as 2015 Family Business of the Year by Oregon State University Austin School of Business under the \"Family Harmony\" category. Since earning the rank of Eagle Scout, Steve has been personally committed to community organizing and contribution. Examples include work with the Chamber of Commerce, Asante governing and foundation board, Rogue Gateway Rotary, Mercy Flights, and Friends of Southern Oregon Hospice. In 2015, Steve went through with a promise to shave his head when the Roe Motors team met its fundraising goal and raised $15,234 for the Grants Pass Relay for Life. In addition, Roe Motors raised over in a 5-hour car wash to benefit the Blue Slide Project for a handicapped-accessible playground at Parkside School. Steve has an Automotive Marketing and Accounting degree from Northwood University and a Masters in Management degree from Southern Oregon University. He lives in Grants Pass, Oregon with his wife Kristi (a 1st grade teacher at Allen Dale Elementary) and Hope and Finn, their registered therapy dogs. His two daughters are grown with five grandchildren. Steve enjoys Diamond Lake, reading, computer technology, and giving back to others.
