Jamison Braun passed away in Edmonton on March 13, 2006 at the age of 27. Jamison leaves behind a multitude of family and friends who will never
forget how deeply he touched their lives.

CHAMCHUK: Roman  February 13, 1926 - March 18, 2006

Roman passed away peacefully at Drumheller Continuing Care on Saturday March 18, 2006 with family by his side.  Roman is survived by his loving wife of 49 years, Gloria, and their daughters Connie Dahlby, Brenda Riddick and Roxanne Rowe.  Roman was 'Umpa' to his five grandchildren ­ Bjorn, Ty, Cael, Brittany and Bob.  He is also survived by his mother ­in- law Pauline Hamm, brother-in-law and sister-in-law Freeman and Olga Vessey, sister-in-law Elesha Vaughn and brother-in-law Roy Olesky, as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

Roman came to Canada as a very young child and resided in East Coulee, where he received his education.  Roman enlisted in the Royal Canadian Navy at the age of 18 and received his training in Nova Scotia.  At the end of World War II he returned home and pursued his interest in business ­ purchasing Central Meat & Grocery which he owned and operated until 1962 when he came to Drumheller to operate first The Corner Grill and later Roman's Restaurant.  Roman loved serving the public and the community and took great pride in providing what many considered some of the best food and service in the Valley. Being a member of the Kinsmen club gave him much enjoyment over the years. Roman also enjoyed the annual 'Big Game Hunt' which he looked forward to with great anticipation ­ the camaraderie he enjoyed with the boys always superseding the success of the hunt (or lack there of).

If friends so desire, memorial tributes may be made directly to the Alzheimer's Society of Alberta, the  Heart and Stroke Foundation of Alberta or the Alberta Cancer Society.  The family would like to extend special thanks to the nurses and staff at Drumheller Continuing Care and especially Dr. Nahornick.
