Kathe Helen Jensen Romano, 93, of Las Vegas, NV, went home to our Lord and Savior on November 15, 2023. Kathe was born October 16, 1930, in Copenhagen, Denmark, to Poul and Anna Jensen. She grew up in Denmark during WWII under the Nazi occupation. Her lifelong dream was to go to America, and at age 20 she immigrated to the United States by herself with only $70 to begin her new journey in life. In 1956, Kathe proudly became an American citizen.
After living on both the east and west coasts, she came to Las Vegas for a vacation in 1957 and met her soulmate, Dante, at the Riviera Hotel. He was a dealer and fell in love with her from behind his gaming table. They wed shortly after and were married for 55-½ years until his death. In addition to being a “full-time” Mom to her daughters, Kathe worked as an office manager and medical secretary for ophthalmologists and vascular surgeons.
Kathe was preceded in death by her husband, Dante Romano. She is survived by two daughters, Kathe Romano and Karen (Tim) Cauley, all of Las Vegas, two granddaughters, and five great-grandchildren.
Visitation will be held at Palm Cheyenne Mortuary on Monday, December 11, 2023, from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Burial will be at Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Boulder City, NV, on Tuesday, December 12, 2023, at 9:20 AM.
