Roland Frank Mease
Roland Frank Mease - husband, father, grandfather and friend - passed away on Thursday, May 8 after 81 years of a life filled with family, friends and good times. Born in 1932 in Rieglesville, PA, he was the youngest of six sons of the late Frank and Lottie (Unangst) Mease. Roland served in the U.S. Air Force at Lowry Field in Denver. He met the love of his life, Nancy Lee Keating at Woolworths and they were married on Valentine's Day in 1953. They celebrated their 50th anniversary surrounded by their family in 2003. She passed away in December 2008. He was a graduate of the University of Denver and worked for Martin Marietta, Continental Airlines and Frontier Airlines during his career as a production planner.
He is survived by five sons, Stephen and his wife, Cheryl Dorschner of Williston, VT.; James and his wife, Sheila of Golden, CO; Christopher and his wife, Leslie of Littleton, CO; Jason and his wife, Wendy of Franklin, TN; and Kirk of Denver; 10 grandchildren, Joe and his wife, Stephanie, Noah, Asa, Cooper, Chandler, Riley, McCulloh, Skyler, Savannah and Braeden; and three great grandchildren, Emerson, Preston and Lillian
He was a deeply caring, compassionate family man, always ready to help a neighbor, go bowling with friends, play ping pong in the basement with his grandkids, travel, and throw some Omaha steaks or lobster tails on the grill for family gatherings.
A family memorial celebration of Roland's life will be held on Sunday, May 18, at 11:00 am. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Denver Rescue Mission, P.O. Box 5206, Denver, CO 80217 or the Denver Chapter for Alzheimers, National Alzheimer's Association,455 Sherman St, Denver, CO 80203.
