Romey Lance Beliles Obituary
Romey was born on November 12, 1971, in Owensboro, Ky., to the proud parents of Brenda and Bob Hodges and Herman and Joy Beliles. Romey's double cousin, Shane Beliles, was like a brother to Romey. There was a very special bond between the two. The love they shared was unbreakable. His siblings include Dana Marshall Smith, Robbie Hodges, Lori Duke and Cody Weakley.
As a proud graduate of Western Kentucky University, Romey carried his alma mater in his heart. Along with his many achievements, he became proficient in welding which contributed to the creation of a magnificent sculpture that graces the WKU campus, a work of art he was exceptionally proud of. This sculpture stands not only as a testament to his creativity and craftsmanship but also as a lasting symbol of his commitment to the university community. Romey`s pride in this unique piece reflected his passion for art and his desire to leave a meaningful legacy. Romey continued his life experiences as a Master Barber at Cowles barber shop. He had a remarkable ability to listen, connect, and uplift those around him, making everyone feel valued.

Romey will be remembered not only for his smile, but his ability to make everyone smile around him. During our college years he had this uncanny way to take a bad situation and turn it into a positive. He told the best stories and could always make you belly laugh so hard that you´d fall out of your seat. He was roommates with the his double first cousin, Shane and they were always inseparable, a great team to one another, and always blast to be around while at WKU. Romey had a profound impact on whomever he met. He made a huge difference in our world. He deeply cared about all of humanity. He will be missed by so many friends. I´m attaching a photo, Shane took of Romey and I... such wonderful memories and great times.

My condolences to all the friends (there were many, I hear!) and family of Romey. I remember him as a young man and as a member of my family. We didn´t stay in touch frequently but occasionally through Facebook we would catch up. Romey was kind, so smart and extremely talented! I will remember him fondly. God bless you all and God´s grace to Romey.
