Roxy and Trevor married after only a four-day courtship. She is initially an outsider on the base until chatting to Claudia Joy Holden in the Hump Bar where Roxy has taken a job as a waitress. Soon after, she befriends other wives, as their common bonds outweigh their differences. Roxy has dealt with an alcoholic mother and an abusive former spouse, and her family has constant money problems. As the health of Betty, owner of the Hump Bar, deteriorates, Roxy is groomed to take over the bar. Despite a noticeable lack of business savvy, her street sense more than compensates. When Betty dies, Roxy briefly renames the bar "Betty's Place," but has since changed it back to the Hump Bar.
In Season 1, it is revealed that Roxy never completed high school. With Roland's help, in Season 2, she takes classes and passes the GED exam.
In Season 5, Finn's father (one of Roxy's old boyfriends, named Whit) visits to give some money from a small inheritance toward Finn's education. Roxy subsequently hires Whit to work as a contractor on a truck stop project. With Trevor away in Afghanistan, she begins to feel close to her old flame again, though she resists acting on it. Roxy finds out Trevor is coming home early. She panics and tries to fire Whit, but then that doesn't work. Trevor arrives home and is very distant and seems upset with Roxy even though she tries to make a romantic evening alone with Trevor.
