Roxane M. Vickers' Obituary
Roxane May Vickers, age 62, passed away at home surrounded by family on October 30, 2024, after a year long battle with cancer. Roxane was born to Elmer and Loretta (Jones) Gager on November 6, 1961, in Muskegon, MI, and she lived most of her life in the surrounding area.

On November 30, 2000, she married Terry Vickers, and the two of them shared many happy memories over the years.
Roxane had a vibrant personality, there was nothing boring about her. She was always outspoken and never afraid to tell you what she thought. She loved driving in her Corvette, riding her Harley, and playing video games with her grandkids. Her favorite pastime was spending time with her family, especially her grandkids. She loved hosting and cooking for family, and she was always very involved in their lives.
