xx xx, xxxx - xx xx, xxxx

Ms. Ronell “Roni” Dawn Scheller (née Burgett) died as a result of ovarian cancer in her home alongside loved ones on January, 8 2019 in Chicago, Illinois at the age of 59. Roni is survived by her parents, Glenn and Patricia Burgett of Grand Rapids Michigan; children, Alexyn Scheller, 30, (Jen Scheller) of Richmond, Virginia, and Calla Scheller McLaughlin, 29, (Daniel McLaughlin) of Chicago, Illinois; and sisters Kyle Lagrois of Rochester Hills, Michigan, and Pamela Stanley of Asheville, North Carolina and beloved brother in law Marc Lagrois nephews Remy Lagrois, Christian Lagrois, David Stanley and niece Hannah Stanley. Roni was born on 12/22/1959 in Grand Rapids, Michigan to Glenn and Patricia Burgett. She graduated from Michigan State University in 1982 with a degree in Packaging Engineering. After living in several cities, she moved to New Jersey where she welcomed her two children, Alexyn Scheller and Calla Scheller. She prided herself on instilling creativity, hard work, and generosity into her children, and her children remember her as an incredibly driven, perseverant, and as a wonderful mother who encouraged them to follow their dreams. Roni was accomplished at packaging engineering and even had 3 patents to her name. She spent her time working internationally in Toronto, Canada and her favorite city of Istanbul, Turkey. She was a witty, hilarious, dedicated woman who loved her family, her MSU Spartans, and who was passionate about college sports, spending time with her family, and giving to others.

It is never easy to lose a loved one. My desire is that you find consolation in the promise of God found in Revelation 21: 3-4 that says that soon, "He, will cleanse all tears from our eyes, and death will no longer be, nor will there be more mourning or outcry or pain." We will see all of our loved ones when they are resurrected in a beautiful paradise here on earth, my deepest sympathy to the family.

What a beautiful tribute to a beautiful person, both inside and out. I would expect nothing less from her kids and you all were each other’s everything. Roni was such a special person that will be missed, but never forgotten. My most heartfelt condolences to Calla, Alex and the entire family.

I am so sorry to hear of cousin Roni's passing. We may not have seen each other often, but she was always so open and friendly when we did. My heart goes out to Glenn, Pat, Kyle, Pam, Alex and Calla as you work through your incredible grief. Just know that she is the bright star in the evening sky.

Roni was a joy to work with and always kept us laughing even when times were tough. I will miss her friendship deeply.

My sincere condolences to your family during this time. Your mother seemed to be a very beautiful person. I look forward to the time when such Scriptures as John 11:35 where it assures us that Jesus understands our pain during our loss and has the power to erase death forever will come true.
