Roxy Linton-Croner Carlsen

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our sweet mama Roxy, who departed this life on February 25th, 2026, at the age of 69.

Roxy was born on Oct 19, 1956, in Saint Paul, to Jonathan Linton and Violet Taylor Linton. In high school, Roxy moved in with the Carlsen's, who became her foster parents, and never let her go. Roxy dedicated her life to the medical field, family, friends, and her faith. She worked as a receptionist for over 40 years and touched countless lives throughout her career.

Above all, Roxy cherished her family and was a proud mother of two girls, and a Mimi to five grandchildren. Roxy is survived by her two daughters, Lisa Croner of Saint Paul, MN, and Jenny Croner (Luis); grandchildren, Luis Jr, Adrian, Lily, Rylan and Amaya of Columbia Heights, MN; siblings, Jean Linton of Cottage Grove, M, Mark Linton of River Falls, WI, Patti Linton of Roseville, MN, Lilly (Brian) McCleary of AZ; and many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her birth parents, John and Violet Linton; Foster Parents, Don and Vera Carlsen; and her many beloved dogs, who are waiting at the rainbow bridge.

Those who knew Roxy would remember her for her warm smile, laughter, generosity, love of cooking, and her counted cross-stitching.

A celebration of life at Bradshaw - White Bear will be announced at a later date.

Though deeply missed, Roxy's love and legacy will live in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
