Funeral - Flaviu Muntean
2024-05-18 14:00 - 16:00 | Hamilton Mill Memorial Chapel, 3481 Hamilton Mill Rd, Buford, GA, 30519, United States
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, and grandfather, Flaviu Muntean. Born on July 28, 1939, in the town of Ocna-Mureș, Alba County, he was part of the family of Aurel and Aurelia Muntean, alongside his four siblings: Virgil, Tănase, Lia, and Felicia.
Flaviu spent his youth learning and working, completing high school and technical school in Alba-Iulia, and then serving in Cluj-Napoca. In 1976, God brought Cornelia Gal into his life, and they started a family that same year. Flaviu was blessed with the birth of his first child, Flavia, in 1977, and in 1981, their family grew once more with the arrival of their second child, Florin.
He leaves behind his wife, Cornelia, and their two children: Flavia and her husband, Emanuel, along with their children Nathan and Matthew, and Florin and his wife, Oana, along with their children Jack and Petra.
Flaviu was a gentle, lively, loving, and devoted man, whose character reflected the image of Christ. His passions for gardening, beekeeping, traveling, and spending time with family brought joy and light to the hearts of those around him.
He will remain forever in our hearts, and the beautiful memories shared with him will always be a source of comfort in times of sadness. Farewell, our dear husband, father, and grandfather, until we meet again in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ.
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.” – 2 Timothy 4:7-8

Cristian Marius Selagea 6/9/1975 -6/24/2024
Cristian Marius Selagea (Cris or Kiki) left this side of heaven and stepped into glory, on June 24th, 2024, at 6:35PM, after a very long battle with MS. He is survived by his wife Ioana, his son Gabe, parents Timotei and Ligia, sister Daniela and brother-in-law, Sorin, his nieces and their families, aunts and uncles here in the States and in Romania, many cousins and in law family in Romania. He is also survived by an even larger group of close friends who made the choice to join Cris’ difficult journey and offered help, love and compassion in some of the most difficult moments of his life.
With the help of his close family and friends, Cris lived a full life, raised an amazing son and made his wife and parents proud, traveled and made many memories, loved the Lord with all his might, witnessed our Jesus to as many people he could and didn’t complain at all when the illness took its toll on his body. His beautiful and serene smile was his signature and the memory many people that knew him will keep in their hearts and minds.
Cris was born in Ocna Mures, Romania and moved to United States of America when he was 9 years of age. He lived for one year in Chicago, after which his family moved to Atlanta, Ga. He was part of the First Romanian Baptist Church family and was loved by many.
He loved the Lord from a young age and understood he was forgiven of his sins and saved through Jesus’ sacrifice at the cross. He got baptized in 1989 at First Romanian Baptist Church and was part of this church and community until he took his last breath. He loved learning from the Word, serving and singing.
On July 31st 1999, Cris met Ioana and shortly after, he asked her to be his wife. They got married in October 9th, 1999 and started their lives together. A month later, they would receive the devastating diagnosis of MS, which would change the course of their lives. While not easy, they learned to rely on the Lord and the help of close family and friends and trust God would provide the necessary strength each step of the way.
On July 31st, 2004 they welcomed their miracle baby, Gabriel Cristian, who grew up to be an amazing source of joy for the entire family, but especially for Cris. The bond they developed can’t be described into words. He loved the beach, cars, spending time with his family and friends and adored food, chocolate and Romanian deserts.
He also loved to praise God through music and the Desculti event was the highlight of the year. He loved to make friends and he never met a person he couldn’t find something to talk about. He was kind, loving, generous, funny and an amazing son, brother, husband, father, uncle and friend.
The wake will take place on Friday, June 28th, at 7:00pm at First Romanian Baptist Church: 1280 Lawrenceville-Suwanee Rd, Lawrenceville Ga, 30043.
Funeral service will be held Sunday, June 30, 2024, at 3:00 PM at Hamilton Mill Memorial Chapel. Interment will follow at Hamilton Mill Memorial Gardens. Address: 3481 Hamilton Mill Rd, Buford GA 30519.
Until we meet again rest in peace our beloved Cris!

I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.
5 Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame. – Psalm 34:4-5
