I really can't remember life before Roxanne.  We met on Lauren lane 1977. After that day we were inseparable. Days spent between her house or mine . Millions of memories.  I was a part of her family and she was a part of mine. We traveled together,  we laughed and at times we cried. Every milestone in life we were there for each other.   August 2023 was no different I was in the hospital in vegas with cardiac issues and your last words to me " be brave sweet heart" you said because your dad always said that when you struggled.   Months laters I went in for open heart surgery Roxanne the song was playing in the OR. I knew I d be OK.  Little did I know God called you home while I was in the cardiac observation unit .Our lives always parallel each other our children made us really family as they are  1st cousins.  I miss you even though I  still talk to you I feel your presence.  I know I will see you again in paradise . Until then you are my guardian angel looking out for me as you did in life .

Roxanne and I met when we took a couple of the same courses at CLC. I brought Bradley an Elmo balloon for his 4th birthday. Roxanne was always there for me and welcomed me to have dinner with her family while we studied anatomy & physiology and microbiology after we completed our Nursing Assistant course in ~2012. Every single year around Halloween, I think of this  candy corn artwork Bradley made. Roxanne used to chase me around in the kitchen saying “the candy corn man is gonna getchya!” 

I have a million memories of laughs like these with Roxanne. I wish we took more photos together over the years. if I find some on my old laptop I will post. 

I miss you so much Rox. I hope to see you again one day.

I wish I could have attended your service 💔

She was my dissertation student. A wonderful person, who I am honored to have known.

Roxanne was such a beautiful soul. I’ll always remember her selflessness, kindness and warmth. We shared great memories together and a lot of fun times. This is an enormous loss and my condolences to her family and loved ones. She was a magical human who’s memory I’ll cherish forever! Love & light ✨✨✨

Roxanne,

My heart is full and sad.  Though I known you for a brief moment in high school when I was good friends with Jamil, you and your family always treated me with such unbelievable kindness - your mom always offering me something to eat whenever I came over, and it’s funny that she always called me by my nickname. I still remember passing your room filled with pictures of Madonna and everyday, to this day, I  always think of you whenever I hear a song by Madonna.  I still see you sitting on your bed,  on the phone and smiling as I walked by to Jamil’s room and his overflowing Godzilla memorabilia.  You had a wonderful smile- your mom’s smile and twinkling eyes.  I hear your soft voice with an almost inaudible rasp.  I always regretting not keeping in touch with you after Jamil and I started to go in different directions because you didn’t seem to waiver in your spirit and attitude.  When we reconnected on social media, the limited way one can, I was grateful see you, how much you loved your family, how you still cherished and honored Jamil’s memory, and how you didn’t surprise me you turned out as awesome as you did.  I know you will be missed and I miss you too.  Please give Jamil a hug and say hi to your dad for me and thank you for the time you were in my life.

You were/are one of my bestfriends Rox and I will never forget you.  You always made me laugh and smile harder then anyone and I will miss yours and your infectious excitement.  I’ll miss all the memes you’d send that only you and I found funny because we just understood each other that way.  And I’ll miss how you believed in me always bc that’s who you were - you were a mama bear through and through for those you cared about.  I’ll never forget sitting in that hallway at work putting together those chairs struggling so much and you sitting there pretending to help me lol but making me laugh the whole time.  I miss you so much Rox.

My Dearest Roxanne-A  I’m so very grateful for 39 years of friendship and sisterhood! I’m thank for everything you have done for me and I’m truly going to miss our conversations about our kids, work, social life and our hair.  It was so much fun being pregnant at the same time. You have always been such a supportive person with our judgment! Your smile and laughter was contagious. It was unexpected that you were called home, but God’s plan for you were greater than our expectations of life here on earth. I will be patiently waiting to see you in my dreams! 
I love you and miss you sis!!! 

Roxanne you were not only one of my closest friends from childhood you were family to me you were like my sister. I am at a loss for words.
I have so many memories I wouldn’t even know where to start because Roxanne and I 
grew up together since early grade school. One of my fondest memories is that when we would travel together with our families on vacations, whether she came with mine, or  I went with hers. Her family was my extended family and ditto. When we were in grade school, Roxanne had this trapper keeper with a little story that she would write about us putting it in like a little fantasy world. It was very important to her and I loved it. She would write in it pretty often I’m not quite sure how far she got, but I really would like to get that and read that all over again. She was so good she had such a kind heart and very funny and witty. We would laugh so many times that we would almost P our pants I really can go on and on about all the memories that I have of Roxanne but I really don’t think I’m in the position right now to write a book lol, I love you Rox and you surely will be missed by me and so many others. All I can think about is that I hope that you are walking along a beach with your dad and Jamil. God bless your heart. Love you always.
