Wilfred Aubert Rome Jr.

Wilfred Aubert Rome Jr., age 95, passed away peacefully on August 10, 2026, at Woodland Village Nursing Center. Born on July 10, 1931, in New Orleans, Louisiana, Wilfred lived a long and meaningful life centered on family, faith, and love.

Wilfred was preceded in death by his parents, Wilfred Aubert Rome and Leona Anna Garcich Rome; his beloved wife, Catherine Mary Rome, who passed away on August 26, 1987; his beloved companion, Henrietta "Pollye" Tresemer, who passed away on January 19, 2022; his daughters, Patricia Marie Rome Stennett and Peggy Ann Rome Domingo; his son-in-law, Glenn Dale Stennett Sr.; and his brother, Roland Anthony Rome Sr.

He is lovingly remembered by his goddaughter, Roxanne Rome Worack (Roger); his sister-in-law, Marilynn Caillouette Rome; and a family that was the pride and joy of his life.

Wilfred leaves behind eight grandchildren: Amie Sins (Dennis), Rickey Noto (Josh), Randy Noto (Anjuli), Glenn Stennett Jr. (Rebekah), Jesse Stennett Sr. (Jaymie), Rebecca Gioe (Jeffrey), Travis Stennett (Elizabeth), and Clint Stennett (Logan).

He was also blessed with twelve great-grandchildren: Catherine, Caroline, Theodora, Glenn Dale III, Beallie, Susanna, Jesse Joseph Jr., Lucia, David, Cecilia, Riley, and Ryann, each of whom brought him immeasurable pride and happiness.

Wilfred spent much of his life in Chalmette, Louisiana, before later making his home in Kingwood, Texas. He witnessed nearly a century of history and embraced life's joys and challenges with strength, resilience, and unwavering devotion to those he loved. His greatest accomplishments were not measured in titles or possessions, but in the family he nurtured and the lasting legacy he leaves behind.

Those who knew Wilfred will remember his steady presence, his wisdom gained through a life well lived, and the love he had for his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. He treasured time spent with family and leaves behind memories that will continue to be shared for generations.

Though our hearts are heavy with his passing, we take comfort in knowing he is reunited with those who went before him, especially his beloved wife, Catherine, his companion Pollye, his daughters, and the many loved ones he deeply missed.

Wilfred's life was a testament to enduring love, perseverance, and the importance of family. His memory will forever remain in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

"Well done, good and faithful servant." — Matthew 25:23
