Roxanne Lorch, age 85, from Cary, NC, is a full-time artist with a studio in Durham NC who exhibits her work in juried shows and wins awards. Roxanne was among the first women to work in commercial design and graphics (who was not a secretary) and then in sales. In 2001, Roxanne became one of the original 17 members of The Transition Network (TTN) and currently is on the steering committee of TTN-Coast-to-Coast (TTN-C2C), a nation-wide chapter that addresses the interests of older women in transition. She thinks she “might possibly be the oldest first-time bride in history!” Now widowed, Roxanne resides in an Over 55 retirement community where she engages fully with people and activities. She co-founded Thriving in Place (TIP) so neighbors can help neighbors.
“Women over 70 are still going through transitions and we can still make good decisions for ourselves.”
