A devoted athlete and true Hero, Andrii Romanov, a resident of Kropyvnytskyi, has fallen in battle against the Russian invaders. He was only 33 years old.
A skilled volleyball player, Andrii played for the Kropyvnytskyi volleyball club “Krop.” When Russia launched its full-scale invasion, he did not stand aside—first volunteering to support the military and civilians, and later joining Ukraine’s Defense Forces. As a combat medic, he saved the lives of his comrades and remained faithful to his oath until the very end.
“It’s hard to find the right words right now. A friend, a teammate, family. He was always… a bright spark,” wrote his friends and colleagues from the “Krop” volleyball club.
A dedicated athlete, a courageous warrior, a loving husband and father. Andrii leaves behind a wife and a young son, who have lost the most precious person in their lives.
Eternal memory and glory to Andrii Romanov. His sacrifice will never be forgotten!
