Roxann Marie Terwey Nedesky Obituary (1939

Roxann Marie (Terwey) Nedesky was born on July 11, 1939, in St. Rose, Minnesota, to Joseph and Laura Terwey. She passed away on June 3, 2017, at her home in Mapleton, Utah, after a courageous battle with Alzheimer’s. Roxie married her sweetheart Joseph Roger Nedesky on October 10, 1959, and had four children, Renee Tuckett (Paul), Jean Bishop (Bruce), David (Coy) and Laura Grace (Bryan). In 1972, Joe and Roxie moved from Duluth, Minnesota, to Mapleton, Utah. Roxie loved her husband and family more than anything. She loved being a homemaker and babies. Roxie had the magic touch to calm crying babies. She was kind and giving, always helping others. She made beautiful quilts, crocheted and knit everything you can imagine and made the tastiest home bread. Her children and grandchildren could always count on a homemade cookie when they came to visit. Roxie is survived by her husband, children, 11 grandchildren, eight great grandchildren and sister, Bonnie Galeski (Florida). She was preceded in death by her parents; sister, Margie Dalbec; and brother, Dwayne Terwey. Roxie asked to be cremated so her and Joe could be together when he goes. The family would like to thank Encompass Hospice who lovingly cared for Roxie in her last days. Funeral Mass will be held at 11:00 a.m., Thursday, June 8, 2017 at St Francis of Assis Catholic Church 65 East 500 North, Orem, Utah. Rosary will be held at 10:00 am prior to service. After the funeral, there will be a luncheon to celebrate Roxie’s life at the Tuckett’s home, 822 S. 950 E., Spanish Fork, Utah. All family and friends are invited.
