Obituary for Romankiw


Published in the Albuquerque Journal on Wednesday December 08, 1999

Daniel Romankiw, my dad. A good man, who worked his entire life. He cherished his family, loved the Lobos and really liked enchiladas. He served his country with the United States Marine Corps in the Korean Conflict. Then he worked for NWEF at Kirtland Air Force Base for over 35 years. He did a lot of yardwork around the home he was so proud of, but he wishes he was at Willow Creek.
