Roxie Diane Richards

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the death of Roxie Diane (Harrison) Richards. After a hard fought battle with cancer, Roxie died early in the morning on May 12th, 2023.  Roxie was born on January 8th, 1962 to Nancy (Harrison) Kalanui and Randolph Harrison in Casper, Wyoming. Roxie grew up in Casper along with her sisters, Tina, Lynn and Carla. She proudly graduated from Natrona County High School in 1980. In her adult life she had many accomplishments, the one of which she was proudest was having her two daughters Rachel and Brittny. Roxie lived in and explored many different places in her life time including Wyoming, California, North Dakota, West Virginia, and Florida, however she always came back home to Wyoming. In all of her adventures she held a variety of jobs which primarily included administrative work and bank work, with her final work being at Walmart, where she gained many many friends. Roxie was a social butterfly who made friends everywhere she went and many of those friendships lasted a lifetime. Roxie loved playing darts, dancing and was always there for a good time. Roxie was a proud dog mom to her poodles and she treated them like her own children. She is survived by her two daughters Rachel (Michael) Land and Brittny Richards, her three grandsons Owen French, Landon French, and Ari Land, her sisters Tina Kuras,  Lynn (Larry) VanOrsdale and Carla (Dale) Whetham, in addition to many beloved nieces, a nephew, great nieces and great nephews, many of which called her Mama Roxie and who say she gave the best hugs. She is preceded in death by her parents, Nancy Kalanui and Gene Kalanui, her grandson Quinn Land, and her very dear friend Pat Fitzgerald. Roxie deeply loved her family, especially her grandsons. A celebration of life will be held on Friday, June 16th at 3 PM at the Eagle's Lodge located at 306 N Durbin Street Casper, WY.
