So Sorry for the entire family. Rox was a super good person, Partner, Mom, Grandma,
Great Grandma sister, sister- in- law, and friend. I will miss her so much. We knew each other for almost 60 years. In retirement, we talked almost every day. I am so happy that physical suffering is gone now. Rest in peace my dear sister-in-law and hug everyone there for me. Love and miss you. Your family will miss you so much. You were loved. We will be praying for your family everyday. God love you.
God received a beautiful angel , My Aunt Rox . It’s hard to believe that you’re gone. What an amazing beautiful woman . Sending love and prayers to the family. She will be greatly missed.
Deepest condolences to the family. I had the privilege of working with Rox for over 20 years at the sheriff’s office. She was such a valued member of our law enforcement family that was loved by all that worked with her. She was one of a kind! We extend our gratitude for her many years of service to the community and for her friendship through the years. May the God of all peace welcome her into His care and extend that peace and comfort to surviving family and friends.

My thoughts and prayers to Rox’s family. I worked with her at the DCSO for many years. She was the “go to” at the front desk, and handled a big portion of payroll for many years. Her smile and sense of humor will be remembered. Rest in peace Rox.
My condolences to Roxane’s family. Hope her and Mick are having a good time celebrating St. Patrick’s day together once again.
Rich and family, I so sorry to hear on the passing of Aunt Roxanne. She was kind, loving, warm hearted and will be missed. You’re in our prayers!
Joe and Stacie I am so sorry for your loss you have my loving prayers and thoughts as well as the rest of the family. Your in my prayers. Love Lisa Jo Brunkhorst
Rox was a joy to around and a very kind person to everyone. We will miss her.
I only knew Rox from Facebook and my oldvl school mate, Rich Rybin. Her posts were always positive, heartfelt and encouraging. I wish I had the honor of meeting her in person. I am truly sorry for her passing and everyone’s loss.
Roxanne was a beautiful person who had a big heart. She was special to me even though I am Todd’s sister, she included me in family holidays and other special occasions or any family gathering that was going on. She will be so missed. I wished I was able to be there for her service, unfortunately I have to work. I will never forget the kindness in her heart. She loved her family more than anything.
