Joseph Michael Romeo

Michael was a graduate of the Louisiana State School for the Blind in 1963 and devoted 35 years of service at LSU Pleasant Hall. He was a passionate supporter of the LSU Tigers baseball and football teams and enjoyed cheering them on.

Michael is survived by his devoted wife of 61 years, Diane Romeo; brother, Kevin Romeo (Cyn. D. Reynaud); sisters, Sharon Frazier (Rick) and Geralyn Stockstill (Paul); sister-in-laws, Diane Waguespack Romeo, Marilyn Chachere (Bob) and Jackie Caton; along with numerous nieces, nephews and cousins, all of whom he cherished.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Emily Dugas Romeo and Jospeh Romeo, Jr.; sister, Judy Romeo Albarado; brother, Darrin Romeo; mother-in-law, Rosalie Briley Prather; father-in-law, Joseph McDuff McMillan; and brother-in-law, Donald Gene McMillan.

Michael will be remembered with respect and gratitude—for a life defined by steadfast devotion, enduring love for family, and pride in the home, work, and traditions that mattered most.
