"Memoria facoltativa" now, I'm afraid.
The Camaldolese of the Eremo San Giorgio at Bardolino (VR) have up a
page of readings from their commemoration in 2004:

Fonte Avellana has a commemorative page with music and with a
reproduction of an illuminated initial (from a ms. of 1395 now in the
Laurenziana) portraying R.:

This illustrated listing of Camaldolese houses gives URLs for many of
them, so possibly other commemorations could be located that way:

The Silvestrine Benedictine monastery of San Vincenzo Martire at Bassano
Romano (VT) has a page as well:

R. himself remains at Fabriano (AN) in the church of SS. Biagio e Romualdo:

is a view of his tomb, executed by Taddeo da Como in 1481.
A brief, Italian-language account of how R. wound up in this church at
Fabriano is here:
