In the fight for Ukraine, Roman Pentak, a resident of the village of Rykhtychi, heroically lost his life. He joined the ranks of the Heavenly Battalion, defending the country since the beginning of Russia\u2019s full-scale aggression. Born on May 7, 1980, in Rykhtychi, he graduated from the local school and VPU No. 19. After serving in the army, he worked at the Dolo Plant and engaged in repair works. He was drafted into the Armed Forces of Ukraine in March 2022 and served on the front line.<\/p>\n
The prolonged service undermined his health, and he passed away on March 12, 2025, at Mechnikov Hospital due to right-sided lobar pneumonia. He is survived by his mother, wife, two daughters, and other relatives. The Drohobych City Council expressed condolences to the hero\u2019s family.<\/p>\n
The farewell to the warrior will take place tomorrow: the funeral procession will arrive at the Heroes’ intersection at 13:00, then proceed to his home for a parastas at 19:00. The funeral will take place on Friday at 13:00 at the Transfiguration of the Lord Church.<\/p>\n
