Roxanne Scott, beloved daughter, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully at her home in Nevada, Iowa, on June 11, 2026. Born Roxanne Ihle on May 15, 1958, in Ames, Iowa, she lived a life marked by warmth, kindness, and an ever-present smile.

A 1976 graduate of Nevada High School, Roxanne carried the values of her Midwestern upbringing throughout her life. She devoted more than twenty years to her career at Sigler Printing in Ames, where she worked diligently until her retirement in 2020.

On December 17, 1993, Roxanne married Ronnie Ray Scott, a union that brought meaningful companionship and joy. Though Ronnie predeceased her, their bond remained a fond memory cherished by Roxanne.

Roxanne’s personality was luminous; she always wore a smile that brightened the days of those around her. Her love for her family was profound and unwavering, and she treasured every moment spent together. She especially delighted in spending quality time with her beloved Pug, Tucker, whom she spoiled with affection. Roxanne’s creative spirit found expression in her enjoyment of diamond art and sharing laughter and friendship over lunch outings.

She is survived by her loving daughter, Jenny (Landon) Earles of Nevada, and son, Matt (Anna) Litchfield also of Nevada. Her family extended to twelve grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, who were a source of immense pride and happiness. Roxanne also leaves behind her stepson, Brent Scott of Roanoke, Virginia, and her stepdaughter, Cara Cole of Oklahoma, all of whom carry forward her legacy of love and kindness.

Roxanne was preceded in death by her devoted parents, Jackie “Jack” Ihle and Louphena “Lou” Bell Klockentager, as well as by her husband, Ronnie Ray Scott.

A Celebration of Life will be held on June 17, 2026, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the Rasmusson-Ryan Funeral Home in Nevada, Iowa, located at 1418 Fawcett Parkway.

Roxanne will be laid to rest at 11 a.m. on Thursday, June 18, 2026, at the Nevada Municipal Cemetery (cremation garden) in Nevada.

Roxanne Scott’s passing leaves a profound void, but her radiant smile, her gentle spirit, and her boundless capacity for love will forever remain as a guiding light for all who were blessed to know her.
