Mary Ann Romano

May 25, 1942 — May 26, 2024

Mary Ann Tyler Romano, R.N. May 25, 1942 - May 26, 2024 It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved wife, mother, and grandmother, Mary Ann Tyler Romano, R.N., on May 26, 2024. A cherished longtime resident of Weatherly, Pennsylvania, Mary Ann had recently made her home in The Villages in Florida.

Mary Ann was born in White Haven, PA, in 1942 to the late Howard and Anna (Deubler) Tyler. She was preceded in death by her siblings, Glennys Sanute and Keith Tyler, as well as her son-in-law, Todd W. Titus.

She is survived by her devoted husband of 60 years, Louis V. Romano Jr.; her loving daughters, Michele Palko and her husband Jerome, and Nicole Borland and her husband Craig. Mary Ann's legacy continues through her cherished grandchildren who fondly called her Nanny, Todd and Tyler Titus, Taylor (Titus) Gregory, Casey Olszewski, and Rheese Borland, and her adored great-grandchildren, Ryder Titus, Grant Gregory, and Grayson Titus.

Mary Ann was an alumna of Weatherly Area High School. She pursued her passion for nursing, earning her R.N. from St. Luke’s School of Nursing, her B.S.N. from Bloomsburg University, and her Master of Science from the University of Scranton. Her career was marked by dedicated service as a nursing instructor and Director of Medical Records at Hazleton State Hospital, and later as a Quality Assurance Evaluator for the Pennsylvania Department of Health.

An accomplished Duplicate Bridge player, Mary Ann earned the prestigious designation of “Life Master” and was an active member of the American Contract Bridge League. She found great joy in teaching Bridge and sharing her expertise. Her commitment to her community was evident through her service as president of the Community Chest in Weatherly, president of the United Way, and as a dedicated member of the Salem U.C.C. Consistory and a Sunday school teacher. Mary Ann found joy in boating, golfing, and, most importantly, in spending time with her beloved family.
