Roxie worked at Villa Rosa in Hawthorne, who mourned her loss in a Facebook post.
"I'm so sorry to hear this," one customer commented. "She always made my deliveries and we loved to chat. Very sweet girl. This is so sad."
"Absolutely tragic, she was a bright light and will be missed," another added.
"Roxie will be forever remembered as a life-loving spitfire, making friends with everyone she met and following her arrow where it pointed," her obituary concludes. Click here for Roxie's complete obituary and service details.
