Romayne Grace (Pittman) DiAndrea

July 22, 1943-August 18, 2025

Romayne Grace (Pittman) DiAndrea, 82, of Altoona, passed away Monday at Celebration Villa, Duncansville. She was born in Altoona, the daughter of the late George and Marie (Ashburn) Pittman.

Romayne is survived by two daughters: Paige Bast of Altoona and Kristin Miller (James) of Bellwood and stepdaughter, Pamela DiAndrea of Duncansville; three grandchildren: Ava Grace and Samuel James Miller and Ellis Mayne Bast. Also survived by cousins: Shirley (Ashburn) Wiseman, Rich Ashburn (Debbie) and Tom Ashburn.

She was preceded in death by beloved aunt, Grace Romayne “Muzz” Grimme; an uncle, John Raymond “Boad” Ashburn and cousin, Raymond Ashburn.

Romayne was a 1961 graduate of Altoona High School and attended the Altoona Business School.

She worked at WFBG TV from 1961-1969 and retired as the office manager for DiAndrea Media.

She was a member of Silver Sneakers where she made many friends that she enjoyed having “margarita’s” with after their work outs.

She never met a stranger and was loved by all who had the privilege of spending time with her. She loved nothing more than spending time with her daughters and grandchildren and dancing, especially to Elvis tunes.

She also left behind 18,000 “pocka books” for her kids to deal with. Mom, we hope that you find the perfect “pocka book” someday.

Friends will be received from noon-3 pm on Saturday, August 23, 2025 at The Stevens Mortuary, Inc., 1421 8th Avenue, Altoona, PA 16602, where a funeral service will immediately follow at 3 pm in the Stevens Memorial Chapel.

Interment will be held at Alto Reste.

The family kindly requests, contributions be made in Romayne’s memory to: Central PA Humane Society, 1837 E. Pleasant Valley Blvd., Altoona, Pa. 16602/www.centralpahumane.org.
