In loving memory of William Frederick Roushia, a beloved father, brother, and friend, who passed away peacefully on November 18, 2024, in Racine, WI. Born in Chicago, IL, on November 2, 1964, William lived a rich and fulfilling life that touched the hearts of many.

His passion for life extended to his cherished moments spent with his grandchildren over leisurely lunches, where his love for Peanut M&Ms and Coca-Cola shone through.

He is survived by his loving daughter, Courtney (Carlos) Pavia; grandchildren, Camron, Cylee, Conner, Carson; sisters, Cindy (Fred) Padgett, Kim (Robert) Emmerling; brother, Chris Roushia; brother-in-law, Roderick Ives, who carry on his legacy of warmth and kindness.

Of my previous co-worker (Chi-Chi’s), your “Happy, Happy” comments on FB were always a good reminder to “Be happy x’s two”. I’ll forever cherish the memories and the giggles we shared while working together! My condolences to all his family at this time. He will be missed by many I’m sure. RIP Willie! 😇
