Roman Matthew Siegfried
Obituary
The epitome of a fighter, Roman Matthew Siegfried was born on March 13, 1978 and lost his final battle on November 8, 2018.
He spent much of his early years enjoying time on his grandparents’ farm outside of Conrath, Wisconsin where he loved to garden and spend time outdoors. In his later years, the only things he loved more than the Tulsa Zoo, bananas, exuberant contestants on the Price Is Right, cheeseburgers and the Oklahoma Aquarium were his family, friends and fire trucks.
Blessed to have been graced with 40 years of Ro’s enthusiasm for life are his parents, Robin and Cherrie Siegfried. He is survived by his parents, his brother Raegen (Amy), his nephew “Little Ro” Rory, aunts and uncles Celeste and Dick Bendel, Diane and Lindsey Perkins, Jayne and Richard Oertle, Elizabeth and George Schwerzel, Milann Siegfried and Rick Siegfried and cousins who loved him dearly. He is preceded in death by his uncle Ray Siegfried II, grandparents Lillian and George Schwerzel and Bobby and Betty Siegfried. The visitation will be from 10 am – 8 pm on Tuesday, November 13 at Ninde Brookside Funeral Home at 3841 South Peoria and the Funeral Mass will be held 10 am Wednesday, November 14 at Christ the King Church in Tulsa, OK. Roman will be laid to rest at Calvary Cemetery. Donations can be made to the Oklahoma Firefighters Burn Camp.

Ruth wanted me to express her sympathy also. In case you do not remember Ruth was the daughter of Carolyn who was Roman's other teacher at Fulton. Carolyn passed away and I adopted Ruth.

to the Seigfrieds: I am so sorry to hear of Roman's death. He was in my class at Fulton Elementary for a semester and he was a joy to work with. He was always happy and always smiling. He lived coming to school and we loved having him. I am sorry I missed the notice of his death in November but I did see it in the Dec. 30 paper. Please accept my condolences.

Roman was always a joy. When my son attended camp with him, he loved sitting near Roman at activities and telling Roman about his day. Roman enriched the lives of many people through his presence and through his influence. We are so very sorry for your loss but so very thankful we were able to interact with Roman during his precious time on this planet

To Roman’s dear family, It’s amazing how Roman’s life affected me. When he was very young (probably about six years old), I had the pleasure of coming to your home to teach Roman. Robin built a work area for us in the basement to do school work. Roman was quite a character who made me laugh! He was smart and full of life. I took him on bike rides around the neighborhood. What a sight we were. He would laugh and squeal as we rode. He touched my heart and I will always remember him. I was also touched by the love and compassion that each of you demonstrated to Roman. He was so very well loved. Please know that you are all in my prayers. May God give each of you an extra dose of strength and love during this difficult time and may He give you an abundance of sweet and precious memories. In His Love, Kathi (Bryant )Jones.

Early child care days at First United Methodist Church, Mother’s Day Out Program, where we first became acquainted with Roman and Cherie. So much time has passed yet at other moments it seems only a blink in time. Praying and sending loving thoughts at this difficult time. The Hewett’s, Tim, Alice and Charles (Ruthann).
