"Day by day you were slipping away...RICHARD WALTER IRVING ROMAN received his glorified, heavenly body, Saturday, December 14, 2002. He has been increasingly missed for over two years as he struggled with stroke dementia. We are grateful that he struggles no more, and rests in the arms of his Heavenly Father. His bride of 44 years, Etta Haney Roman, his three children and 10 grandchildren would covet your prayers and support as we adjust to a world without his unique brand of dry, erudite humor, gentlemanly ways, and incredible integrity. Richard was a graduate of the Naval V-12 program at the University of Texas and served aboard the USS Willard Keith in WWII. He was a respected executive in the petrochemical industry, including years of international experience. He served the Lord with incredible humility through his church, the Gideons, Prison Fellowship and most importantly his family. A celebration of his life will be held on December 17 at 2pm at Southwest Presbyterian Church at 6301 S. Rice Ave. Please join us as we `keep trying to retain his semblance and grace.'
