She leaves her husband, Scott Manning, who was by her side every day as she bravely fought this dreaded disease. Her daughters Megan Manning (25) and Madeline Manning (21) will also grieve their beloved mother. She was born January 21, 1963, to Joseph and Frances (Roddy) Bushey in Omaha, Nebraska. Roxanne was a 1981 graduate of Omaha Central High School. She received her bachelors degree from the University of Nebraska – Lincoln in 1985. There she was a proud member of Alpha Phi Sorority and made many lifelong friends. She earned a masters degree from the University of Nebraska – Omaha in 1987. Roxanne and Scott were married on June 25, 1988, and they recently celebrated their 30th anniversary. Roxanne, Scott and their young family lived in Omaha before moving to McKinney, Texas, in 2000. She had many beloved friends in McKinney, Omaha and around the country. They provided significant emotional and spiritual support, especially during the last year. All will miss Roxanne’s caring heart, sense of humor and how her smile lit up the room. Roxanne was a long-time special education teacher in Nebraska and in McKinney, most recently at Dowell Middle School. She loved teaching and having a positive impact in the lives of her students. However, her proudest accomplishment in life was being a mother and mentor to her beloved daughters. Megan and Madeline will always cherish the incredible influence Roxanne had on their lives. Roxanne was preceded in death by her father, Joseph Bushey (2005). She is survived by her husband; daughters; mother, Frances Bushey of Omaha; sister, Sandra Davidson and husband, Steve of Omaha; brother, Matt Bushey of suburban Minneapolis; brother, Dave Bushey and wife, Liz of Omaha; sisters-in-law, (that she considered sisters), Mary Jane Havick and husband, Ken of Omaha, and Margie Hayes and husband, Chris of Osceola, Nebraska; mother-in-law, Louisa Manning, Geneva, Nebraska; numerous cousins, nieces and nephews; and other loving family and friends. A Celebration of Roxanne’s Life will be held at 10:00 a.m. Saturday, July 21, 2018, at Stonebridge United Methodist Church, 1800 South Stonebridge Drive, McKinney, Texas. The family will receive family and friends prior to the service from 9:00 a.m.

RAYSHANA ADAMS, JULY 25, 2018 Dear Bushey's & Manning's, I thought I would be with you today but, unforunately, the heat wave & my health prevented me from driving to McKinney, Texas, this weekend. I am so very sad not to be there with each of you & give each a hug. I loved Roxanne and have so many memories of her with her dad and my husband, Bill....and with both families @ Port A ...many good times & love. Take care of Fran for me & give love to all....Vincy VINCY ANN DUNN, JULY 21, 2018 We send our most heartfelt love and support to the Manning and Bushey families. Roxanne was just sunshine in a bottle! She was witty, smart, kind, and very playful in spirit. Her departure has left so many of us scratching our heads. Confused and grieving, we search for answers that are beyond reach. But, there is an undercurrent of immense gratitude that seems to persist; for just knowing her was such a tremendously lucky and unexpected gift in this life. She is and will continue to be missed by many. Rest in peace, Little Firecracker.

Most of all, I was proud to be there for her, and pray she n her family know I'm there for anything.
