Roxanne Miller Rahn Obituary (1953 - 2016)

Roxanne Miller Rahn passed away in the early hours of June 30, 2016. Roxanne lived with and battled Alzheimer's disease for the past 8 years, until her very last breath. She will always be remembered in our hearts and memories as a beautiful and loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, and friend. Roxanne was born in Augusta, Georgia on October 16, 1953 to Norman and Betty Rocco Miller. She and her three younger siblings were raised on the South side of Chicago and lived there until the family moved to Houston. Roxanne was married to David Rahn, her one and only, in 1973 and started their family in Clear Lake City where Roxanne worked for NASA JSC and later enjoyed a long career in the Chemical industry for Union Carbide and Dow Chemicals. Whether it was Roxanne's creativity or straight-forward perspective, she earned the respect of all who knew her. Her charm and grace will be forever missed.

She is survived by her loving husband David, daughters Allison and Julie, and 4 grandchildren, Kylie, Violet, Austin, and Nolan.
