Lillian Romanowski Obituary
January 26, 1927 - August 13, 2025
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Lillian Regina Romanowski, who left this world on Wednesday, August 13, 2025, at the remarkable age of 98. Lil made her mark on the world with her warmth, kindness, and sharp wit that could light up any room.
Lil was born in Kenosha, Wisconsin on January 26, 1927, to the late Peter and Julie (Domalik) Leskowicz. She was a graduate of Kenosha High School.
On October 20, 1951, she was united in marriage to Philip Basil Romanowski at St. Casimir Catholic Church. After spending 71 years together, Philip preceded her in death on December 24, 2022.
She was a member of St. Casimir Catholic Church and later St. Peter's Catholic Church, and actively volunteered at numerous church functions. Lil worked at U.W. Parkside. She was known for her home baking, especially her pies, bread, and sweet rolls.
She is survived by her children, James (Karen Drew) Romanowski of Delafield, WI, Renee (Donald Parker) Romanowski of Denver, CO, Jeffery (Ulli) Romanowski of Amenia Union, NY, Jerome Romanowski and Jack Romanowski of Kenosha, WI; her grandchildren, Brett, Matthew, Andrew, Joshua and Zoe; her great grandchildren, Landon, Cole, Mason, Mila, Lillian, and Izabella.
In addition to her parents and husband, Lil was preceded in death by her sisters Esther Despins and Dolores Mullaly; and daughter-in-law, Karen (Esson) Romanowski.
A visitation for Lil will be held on Monday, August 18, 2025, from 5 to 7 p.m. at Piasecki Funeral Home. A Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, at St. Peter's Catholic Church, 2224 30th Ave. Interment will follow in St. Casimir Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorial remembrances to St. Peter's Catholic Church would be appreciated.
Lil's family would like to extend a special thank you to the staff of The Legacy at St. Joseph's for their compassionate care shown since 2018.
