It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of our dearest Roxanne. Surrounded by family, at the tender age of 50 she lost her battle with cancer in the evening of January 10, 2019. Daughter of the late Raymond and Pauline (née Arsenault) Paquette. Loving partner of 7 years to Marcel Lachance. Beloved mother of Chelsey Rooney (Nicholas), Kennedy Rooney, and Gage Rooney. Adoring dog mom to Phoenix, Gary, and the late Knuckles. Dearly loved sister of Suzanne Chevrier (Claude), Joanne (Edward), Shawn (Stephanie), Dean (Natasha), and the late Roger “TB” Paquette. She will be dearly missed by all her nieces, nephews, family and friends. The family would especially like to thank Jenna as well as all the medical professionals and PSWs who assisted her in her last months of care. Roxanne’s enduring strength and wholeheartedness will surely remain an inspiration to those who were fortunate enough to cross her path. Godspeed to our newest Guardian Angel. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Alexander Church, 100 Gaudette St., Chelmsford on Sunday, January 20, 2019 at 1:00 p.m.
I had the pleasure of attending a mindfulness group with this beautiful lady. Although I did not know her long we connected over our cancer. I admired her strength and determination. Rest in peace my friend

My condolences JoAnne and all your family. I know how hard it is to loose a sister especially at such a young age. I have lost 3 sisters and the last one to leave us was last January. May peace be with you.

Roxanne was a beautiful person inside and out. I had the great privilege of working with her for a short time. Her smile and personality shined all the time. She will be greatly missed. May she rest in peace. My sympathies to her entire family.
