Mildred M. Rometti

Mildred “Millie” Marie Rometti, age 84, of Stambaugh, MI, passed away, February 13, 2016. Millie was born April 24, 1931 in Stambaugh, the daughter of the late Emilo and Elvira (Dalessandri) Biondi and was a lifelong resident of the area. She attended Stambaugh Schools, graduating with the Class of 1949. Millie married Rolland “Rollie” Rometti on August 26, 1950 in Caspian, MI. Rollie preceded her in death on June 4, 2014. Millie’s legacy was that of a giving, compassionate, kind woman. Her biggest joys were her children, grandchildren and their families. Millie and Rollie were regulars in the ‘stands’ during school activities. She cherished her Rometti Girls weekends where all unwound, shared stories, played games, and sometimes drank a few too many long island iced tea! It is unanimous in that NO ONE will hug like you hug – you may be small in stature but your strength is undeniable as you hugged with your whole body, a full on squeeze that transfers love straight from your heart center to another. Because of the love you have given your grandchildren and their families they will be very successful, caring, good and loving people. Thank you and please have the tick-tac’s and red hots waiting for us. Millie is survived by her children, Sandy (Bill) Lasich of Manistique, MI, Julie Llewellyn of Neenah, WI and Mark (Lauri) Rometti of Eau Claire, WI; sister Victoria “Vickie” Broslavick of Gaastra, MI. Grandchildren Debbie Marks, Amy (Ron) Gould, Mike (Amy) Kraatz, Robert (Alisha) Llewellyn, Brynn (Justin) Boyd, Tony (Jordan) Rometti, Jessica Rometti and Ryan Rometti.
