Obituary of Victoria Hayes Romeo

Victoria Hayes Romeo (64) of Marana AZ left us peacefully with the love of her life John Romeo by her side on January 8, 2024 after a five-year battle with cancer.

Victoria was predeceased by her mother Gail F. Hayes and father Willard J. Hayes.  She is survived by her husband of 25 years John Romeo, his son Jace and grandson, Elliot and John’s brother, James.  Vicki is also survived by her sister Allison Bernabei, brother Darren Hayes (wife Rita) and her nephews Brandon Bernabei (wife Jennifer and children Huntley, Paisley, Hayden), nephew Derrick Bernabei (fiancé Nichole Nsorderholm), niece Madelyn Hayes Sande (husband Ryan) and nephew Jordan Hayes (fiancé Victoria Newberry).

Vicki started her career in the banking industry in 1984, specializing in Wholesale Mortgage banking.  She won numerous awards including #1 sales representative in the United States.

After retiring to Tucson, AZ Vicki volunteered for Habitat for Humanity and from 2012 to 2022 was a committee member of The Annual Giving Party at the Gallery Golf Club in Marana. 

Vicki truly lived life, enjoying every minute, always laughing along the way.  She loved her interactions with her Gallery and Icon members, her Tuesday group and her card groups.

We will remember and miss our Vicki.

A Celebration of life for Vicki will be held at a later date.  In lieu of flowers please donate to Habitat for Humanity. Link: https://habitattucson.org/give/make-a-gift/
