Veronica "Roni" Fenn

Veronica "Roni" Fenn was taken to be with our Lord, March 31, 2013 at the age of 50. She was born in San Pedro, California on July 6, 1962. Roni is survived by her husband Steve, sons Logan and Connor, her father Ben Fortun and her brother Anthony “Tony” Fortun. Roni also is survived by a multitude of Aunts, Uncles, Nieces, Nephews, Cousins, Sisters in law and Brothers in law, too numerous to mention individually. Preceding her in death was her mother Fruta “Candie”. Roni grew up in Torrance CA, graduated from University of Idaho where she studied forestry. She worked for a cruise line as a cruise director that travelled up and down the Alaskan coast. Later she worked for the BLM as a recreation planner in the deserts of California and helped develop numerous youth programs for the BLM. Then in 1998 transferred to the Southern Arizona BLM district. It was then, through a co-worker, that Roni met Steve, fell in love, married and started a family. This was where Roni found her true passion and purpose in life, as a mother, wife and homemaker. She devoted herself to her family, friends, and church. She continued to volunteer and work with her great enthusiasm for St. Jude Catholic Church, the countless 4-H programs, the SALIA livestock shows, and many other causes that she felt strongly about. Roni homeschooled her two sons as well as assisted her husband Steve to run Fenn Ag Company. Roni’s smile, love of life and helping hands will be missed by all that knew her. A Rosary will be offered 7:00 P.M. on Thursday, April 11, 2013 at St. Jude Thaddeus Catholic Church in Pearce/Sunsites, Arizona with visitation beginning at 6:00 P.M. Mass of Christian Burial will be 9:30 A.M. on Friday, April 12, 2013 at the Pearce Elementary School Gymnasium. Cremation will follow at Westlawn Crematory. Condolences may be expressed to the family at www.westlawnchapelmortuary.com In lieu of flowers the Fenn family has requested that donations be made in Roni's name to Cochise County 4-H. It was always Roni's wish that all youth have the opportunity to participate in the 4-h program and all that it offers. This special fund will assist the needs of the many 4-H youth in Cochise County who were so dear to Roni's heart. Cochise County 4-H, 450 S. Haskell Avenue, Willcox, AZ. 85643.
