Updated at 9:35am EST to add some thoughts about Romaine from Jeff McBride (bottom of post).
Our sincere condolences to Romaine's family and friends.
You can read a little about Romaine in our post from last December, "A lifetime of achievement: Romaine (Roman Szydlowski)."
From the March 21st Facebook post by Phil Matlin at Perfect Magic:
It's with a heavy heart I am informing you of the passing of Romaine Saturday March 20th. A long time friend for over 40 years and an unbroken 35 years of of spending Christmas and New Years with him and Joan. Originally in Montreal and it continued after they moved to Kitchener. Not only a close friend, but he was also my mentor in magic. His knowledge and willingness to share it with me was exceptional. Known world wide as Monarch of Manipulators, and wherever he went he got 5 star reviews. Romaine will be remembered and missed in the magic community. RIP my friend.
