Hello everyone. Just a quick note.

Roxanne went to be with the Lord tonight around 9ish. She fought a hard battle but the cancer kept growing into her brain and pancreas. The family was able to be with her right to her last breath. We will let you know when the funneral will be.

Thanks to all of you.

I am very sorry to hear about Roxanne's passing this evening. I know that this is a difficult time for all of you. Roxanne touched so many lives and loved with all her being and will be greatly missed. I believe that God took her to be with him as her mission here on earth is complete the only thing is that it also leaves a void in our own lives. May God wrap his loving arms around you as you spend this time remembering all that Roxanne was and still is in our hearts and that will never be forgotten.



God Bless you

Dear James, Justin, Uncle Mouse, Auntie Rose, Reg & Nadine, Ron & Jennifer, Raymond & familes & the Brule family,
My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. Thank you Cheryl for keeping up with the blog. Even though I could not be there it gave me comfort to know that I could communicate with her. You truly are a special lady. Roxy is now at peace with the lord. She has put up a tough fight. I beleive Grandma & Grandpa Strueby, Grandma & Grandpa Kortie as well as Tootsie & her uncle Ken are with the lord to welcome her to heaven with open arms. I hope this gives you some kind of comfort she is not alone on her final journey. We will always love her and never forget her. If we can all be half as good as her we will be united with her again. She has given us all one tough lead to follow to be as special as her.
Take Care To All,
She will always be in our thoughts & Prayers.
Love Donna (Hendriks) Sorotski & Family

Cheryl, I can't express in words how important your blog has been to me.

My sympathy goes out to your family especially James and Justin, and to all of the Struebys.

Roxanne was a very special friend to me and I will miss her dearly. I wish we could laugh together one more time.

Dear James and Family… My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you and your family. But please know that Roxanne’s strength and courage has been an inspiration to all. She was an amazing person whose memory will live on and be cherished by so many.

When I last saw her, I found out that she collects angels… how appropriate being such an angel herself.

To Justin… you are a lucky little man to have had such a wonderful Mommy. I hope this blog and all its stories and memories help you remember your Mom as you grow up and become a strong man one day.

And finally my thoughts for Roxanne… you truly are an angel. I know that you’ll be looking down and making sure that everything is ok with your family. But remembering you and your crazy sense of humor, I can only imagine the havoc you are going to create up there. I also suspect that you’ll be looking in on a few old friends and laughing.

Forever in my heart.

My most deepest sympathies goes out to all of the Roxanne’s Family. Roxanne touched so many lives in many different ways. To me she was my big sister when I was growing up, and although our paths failed crossed as much in the past few years I still consider her my big sister. Today is a sad day as I have lost a member of my family. She will always share a special place in my life and heart as does all of her family.

Love Kurt, Brigette Chloe and Hunter

Dear James, Justin and family,
Roxanne was a very special person. She has touched so many people in the short time that she was here on earth. The was an angel on earth she helped so many.

It won't be the same without Roxanne.

It was disheartening to find out this morning that Roxanne’s journey here with us has ended. She is an incredible wife, Mommy, daughter, sister, woman, nurse, and friend. It’s hard to take this all in.

Heartfelt sympathy and love to you James and Justin, as well as to the Strueby and Brulé families. May you find the strength to get through this time.
For those of us who have had the honour of knowing Roxanne the memories of her will be held close to our hearts.

Forever in my heart,
Darcie (Loehr) Anderson and the rest of the Loehr family
