Obituary of Anthony F. Romano, Jr.

Anthony  Romano, Jr.  82, Limerick Township

Anthony Romano, 82, beloved husband, father, grandfather, and brother, passed away peacefully on Saturday, December 13, 2025.

Born on July 11, 1943, in Norristown, Pennsylvania, Anthony Jr. was one of four children born to the late Anthony Sr. and Jennie (Narducci) Romano. After proudly serving four years in the United States Navy, Anthony married the love of his life, Priscilla, and together they made their home in the Royersford area.

A dedicated and hardworking man, Anthony held several positions throughout his career, including work in tubing manufacturing and at PECO. He later became a Shift Manager at the Limerick Power Plant, where he dedicated 25 years of service before retiring. Even in retirement, Anthony remained active professionally, continuing his work as a consultant.

Anthony and Priscilla were deeply rooted in the Royersford community and were longtime parishioners of Sacred Heart Parish. He was an avid reader and coin collector, with a deep appreciation for history and music, and an avid sports fan. Above all else, Anthony’s greatest joy came from watching his family grow and thrive.

Affectionately known as “Roman” by his family, Anthony was proud of his heritage and had a love for travel and new experiences. He and Priscilla shared many memorable journeys together, including trips to Italy and Greece, as well as numerous cruises and trips exploring the United States. Throughout his life, Anthony treasured his time with family and friends, always quick with an entertaining story and a unique sense of humor.

Anthony is survived by his beloved wife, Priscilla (Tancredi) Romano, with whom he shared 59 years of marriage; his children, Josh Romano (Karen) of Royersford, PA, and Tara Romano (Chad Boykin) of Raleigh, NC; and his cherished grandchildren, Aaron and Lauren Romano and Nathan Romano. He is also survived by his siblings: Dominic Romano (Deborah) of Plymouth Meeting, PA; John Romano (JoAnn) of Lansdale, PA; Connie Ingerson of New York; and numerous nieces and nephews.
