What a very special lady Roxie has been for so many different individuals. My husband, Gene, always enjoyed having an opportunity to see and/or visit with Roxie, and he was so proud that she was one of his teachers in one of the little one-room schools near his home growing up. We have some of the items they painted in those elementary years, and, of course, they are treasures to us. Roxie also helped us finish up some ceramic projects which my mother, Elizabeth Katzer, had started to work on, but which were still in the greenware stage when we lost her in 2002. We are so grateful that we were able to preserve those pieces which she finished for us. She always had such a wonderful smile and gentle disposition. She had a very positive influence on many people's lives, and it was a privilege to know her. A friend, JoAnne Platt
