Joseph "Joe" Ronaldo Romero

Joseph "Joe" Ronaldo Romero, 93, of Casper, Wyoming passed away Wednesday, September 4, 2024 and has been reunited with the love of his life Jennie and his youngest Daughter Lori.

Joe was born in San Luis, Colorado in 1930 to Anastasio and Francisca Romero. He was raised in a family with 5 brothers and 2 sisters. Joe’s younger days were spent on his parents farm until he joined the Army.

After being honorably discharged from the Army in 1947, Joe moved to Casper Wyoming with one of his brothers where he met the love of his life Jennie Madrigal. Married in 1949, Joe and Jennie spent every day together for 68 years until Jennie’s passing in 2017. Their love is one that can go unmatched.

Joe had many different careers in his life spanning from his early days in Casper working at the Gladstone Hotel, the Henning Hotel, driving bus for Natrona County School District where he made an impact on many kids lives as “Uncle Joe”, to owning his own oil field tool supply business (Joe’s Sales and Service) after working at Anderson Bit Service.

Joe had two beautiful daughters and one granddaughter whom he taught many things and loved more everyday. Joe’s passion really was caring for his family and doing all he could to provide for them. The flowers and garden seemed to always be in bloom around his yard as he had a green thumb.

In his later years Joe spent his time tinkering and building his only great grandson toys to play with in his living room. Turning something that would normally be thrown away into an innovative original piece of art or toy. Joe was exceptionally creative and had a wonderful vision to repurpose all items.

Joe’s life lives on through his creative visions and the happiness that he brought with him and passed onto his family and friends. Joe was proceeded in death by his brothers and sisters, youngest daughter Lori and his wife Jennie.

He is survived by his daughter Nita Romero, Granddaughter Gabby Butler, her husband(Ryan) and their son Camden. Joe’s family asks for donations to be made in his name to Central Wyoming Hospice and Transitions. Per Joe’s wishes there will be no services held.
