Gilbert Eugene Roman, 76, of Golden Valley, passed away under the
care of Hospice, Oct. 27, 2016.
Gilbert was born Aug. 9, 1940 in Detroit to Albie Jerome Roman, Sr.
and Margaret (Krisak) Roman. He graduated from Christian Brothers
High School and was drafted into the U.S. Air Force, serving from
1963-1969. After taking some college classes, he worked as a
carpenter in the construction industry. Gilbert fell in love with
the beauty and peace of Arizona, moving to the area. He then owned
and operated his own heating and air conditioning company. As he
grew older, he owned a dog training and boarding house while caring
for his own beloved dogs.
Gilbert was proud of his Slovak heritage. Friends and family will
remember him for many things – most likely of all, his beautiful
smile, his wonderful sense of humor and the ability to make people
laugh, his amazing, sometimes unbelievable life stories, his deep
faith and devotion to God and his love.
He is survived by his brother Daniel Roman, Tampa, Fla., and many
nieces and nephews of Detroit.
He was preceded in death by his two brothers, Albie Jerome Roman,
Jr. and Kenneth J. Roman.
A memorial service will be at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church
in Laughlin, Nev., Nov. 12 at 10 a.m., Nevada time and 11 a.m.
Arizona time, with a rosary at 9:30 a.m. Nevada time.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be sent to Helen’s Place, 1025
Sunrise Ave, Kingman, AZ 86409.
Arrangements are under the care of Mohave Memorial Funeral and
Cremation Services, Kingman.
