Roxanne (Longley) Yergeau, 63, of Middletown, Rhode Island, passed away on September 24, 2023, after a long courageous battle with cancer. Roxanne is predeceased by her loving parents Malcolm J. Longley and Patricia (Dellecese) Longley. Roxanne is survived by her loving husband of 38 years James Yergeau and her devoted son Ryan Yergeau both of Middletown RI. She will be sadly missed by her brothers, James Longley of Portsmouth RI, Patrick Longley of West Palm Beach, Florida, her loving sister Michelle Saucier of Sutton MA, her Aunt, Lorraine Carlino of Narragansett RI, her many nieces, nephews, cousins, and her best friend of nearly 50 years Elizabeth (Molden) LaParle of Newport RI.
Roxanne was born on September 4, 1960, at the Newport Naval Hospital, she attended Middletown public schools and graduated from Middletown High School in 1978. She attended Katherine Gibbs School and worked in Human Resources and retail sales until her health no longer allowed her to. Roxanne's greatest joys were family gatherings, yearly trips to New Hampshire, gardening, arts and crafts and sitting in the sun reading her latest novels and doing word search. Roxanne was a dedicated New England Sports fan and very rarely missed a Patriots or Red Sox Game. Services will be private.
