Roma Bartkiewicz Obituary

HAMPTON - Roma Baker Bartkiewicz, 88, passed away Sept. 19, 2008, in Williamsburg, Va.
Roma was born in Lynch, Ky., on Sept. 13, 1920. She was the daughter of the late Frank and Flora Baker of Hampton, Va., and the wife of the late Joseph J. Bartkiewicz, a retired U.S. Army World War II Veteran.
Roma and Joe Bartkiewicz were active residents in many parts of the Hampton community during over seven decades of Military and Civil Service. Roma liked nothing better than to share her opinion in the Daily Press where she felt a strong voice in the affairs of the community could bring concerns to the public's eye.
She is survived by her daughter, Jo Anne B. Lindsay and her husband, Hunter; two grandsons, Alan Lindsay and his wife, Angela, and Sean Lindsay; three great-grandchildren, Owen, Logan and Chloe Lindsay, all of Atlanta, Ga. She is also survived by twin brothers, Ray and Roy Baker of Hampton.
The family will receive friends from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 29, at Parklawn-Wood Funeral Home, where a life celebration for Roma Bartkiewicz will be held at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 30. Interment will follow in Parklawn Memorial Park.
Friends are encouraged to visit www.mem.com to share words of comfort with the family.
Arrangements are under the care of Parklawn-Wood Funeral Home, 2551 N. Armistead Ave., Hampton. View and post condolences on our online guestbook at dailypress.com/guestbooks.

Dear Ray and Roy,
I was looking at the obituaries in the newspaper and was sad to see Roma's obituary. I will miss seeing her in the library. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the rest of the family. Sure hope to see you both soon! May God's peace and comfort be with you. In loving sympathy, Debbie Dunton (Willow Oaks Library)
