Tim Romans, a victim of a double homicide involving an 8-year-old boy, will be buried on the San Carlos Apache Reservation in Arizona today.
Romans, 39, was killed on November 5 in a home where he was renting a room from Vincent Romero, 29. Romero was also killed.
Authorities have charged Romero's 8-year-old son with both murders. The boy allegedly confessed to the crime.
Romans leaves behind a wife and two college-aged daughters. "The girls are devastated. We just got finished picking out a casket, Tanya Romans told The Arizona Republic. "He was our sole provider."
It was not reported whether Tim Romans was a member of the San Carlos Apache Tribe. Nearly everyone who lives on the reservation is Apache.
