Roxanne loved crocheting, sewing, long walks, step aerobics, and making beautiful dolls and banks. Her favorite times were spent playing canasta, making candy, or dancing. She was a "down on the floor" kind of mom and grandma involved in everything. She never missed a sporting event and was always willing to play games, hopscotch, catch, or Candyland. Her infectious personality will be missed.
Roxanne is survived by her children, Melvin "Turtle" Griffiths, Stacey Garcia, and Taffie (Michael) Hunter; 11 grandkids, 13 great grandkids, 6 sisters, and 3 brothers.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Melvin Griffiths; mother and father, Robert and Lucille Norman; brothers, Tony Norman, Robert "Bob" Norman; sister, Jackie Norman Gee.
