Larry Steven Roza, age 66, died September 20, 2023 following a 4 year battle with dementia.
He was born November 10, 1956 in Flint, Michigan to Steve and Della Roza.
He graduated from high school in 1975 in Flint, Michigan.
 
He had multiple jobs including a dive instructor in California, he owned a Vacuum Store in Las Vegas where he sold and fixed both sewing machines and vacuum cleaners.  He also was a part owner in a Toy store in Las Vegas.
In the past few years he worked at Walmart in Delta, CO in the Tire and Lube Department.  He went on disability in September, 2021 and then moved to Grand Junction, CO January, 2022 with his wife.
He loved collecting Hot Wheels, Monsters, and selling and making Turquoise Jewelry.  He also loved riding his motorcycle.  He traveled many miles on his bike across the country to go to bike rallies and to see his mom and family in Colorado. 
 
He married his wife, Priscilla D. Roza, on June 28, 2014 at Skooterz and Shooterz in Crawford, Colorado.  They shared many wonderful days and so much happiness.  They shared the love of riding and making their home together and setting up at the Delta Rock Club to sell the jewelry and precious stones. 
He loved his Raiders, Lakers, and the Tigers.  He knew all the stats for the teams until his illness took all of that away.
He loved hanging out with his friends at Austin Garage and liked to share stories and have a beer or two while talking.  He had so many friends over the years and he valued them so much.
 
He was preceded in death by his parents, Steve and Della Roza.
He is survived by his wife, Priscilla, step-children Kathern, Nicole and Christian, 4 step grandsons and 1 step granddaughter.  His sisters Kathy Roza and Sandy (Tony) Armendariz, five nieces and one nephew and several great nieces and nephews.
 
The family would like to send a special Thank You to the Delta Walmart who found productive things for him to do and keep his dignity when he was unable to do his regular job due to this horrible disease.  Also, a very very special Thank You to Hope West Hospice and his nurse Lilianna and his CNA Randy.  Without them this disease process would have been more difficult.
 
There is not going to be a service.  Please enjoy time and share stories about my Sweetie.  He was much loved.
