Roma Caviness Collins was born in Lubbock, Texas January 14, 1937 and passed away at her home in Kerrville, Texas on September 25, 2024. She graduated from Lubbock High School and Texas Tech University with a degree in Home Economics.

Roma married her high school sweetheart, Howard, in 1958, was married 67 years and they had two daughters, Carrie and Polly. Her love of family was immeasurable and unconditional. She was graceful, kind, creative and lived a life of gratitude.

Roma loved the Lord all of her life but would tell anyone that her personal relationship with Jesus and love and understanding of God's Word came when she attended Bible Study Fellowship, (BSF). Because of her, our immediate family came to know and love Jesus and understand that our relationship with him is ongoing like that of a lifelong friend. The more time spent with someone the better you get to know them.

Roma was preceded in death by her daughter, Polly Collins; husband, Howard Collins; brothers-in-law, James Collins and Don Douglass; and sister-in-law, Ann Collins.

Roma is survived by her daughter, Carrie Collins; sister in-law, Carol Douglass; niece, Cathryn; nephews, Trigg, Brent, Clark, Gregg and Neal; and cousins and friends who will miss her thoughtfulness, generosity of spirit and cards/notes.

We wish to thank Alamo Hospice, Dr. Grocki, nurses, Melinda, Juanita; Heather and Chaplain Larry for their unparalleled compassionate care.

As per Roma's request, no service is planned and her ashes will be spread with her daughter, Polly and husband, Howard, who preceded her in death.
