I am so very sorry for your loss. I lived on Drouillard Road and Adriano (I knew him as Adrian) would ride his bike by my house all the time on his way to work, of after his shift. He would always say “hi Sofija” (he had stopped one time to ask me my name) as he would zoom by. He always had an amazing tan, beautiful white teeth, wearing sun glasses. I’ll always remember him for his blond hair and green eyes. He is one of the people I always wondered “what ever happened to”? I moved away many years ago and my mom sold the house. It especially saddens me to know that he passed just a few months before my mom. 2 lives that ended way too soon.

I met Adrian when I was in high-school many years ago. We also spent a very special day at the zoo. Being from riverside, we would often run into each other, mostly while he was on his bike, and he would always introduce me as "the girl hanging in his parents living room",(Apparently there was a painting of a picture of us from the zoo). I never saw the painting, nor do I much remember that trip. What I do remember, however, is how kind, and sweet he was. How whenever I saw him he just exhuberated happiness! I know I am very late, but I came across this by chance. Please, accept my condolences. He was a wonderful person and I am so saddened to hear he was taken way to soon. My thoughts and prayers are with his family near and far.

I was saddened beyond words. I met Adriano when I was 17. That was a very long time ago. I remember he and his brother Roberto came to my 18th birthday party I still remember the gift he brought. Some cachet perfume. He always offered a hand or his help. I do remember the love he had for his parents. I remember him stopping in often. I left Windsor many years ago. Yet he and his parents took the time and "
" gentilezza" to attend my mother's funeral. I will remember Adriano with an immeasurable fondness and everlasting affection. Tanti, tanti bel riccordi. Mimi Morrone Baker. MIchigan

Adriano lived a couple of houses down from my mom while I was growing up and was a fixture on our street, always on his bike. He was such a good guy, always very kind to my mom, often inviting her over or brining her food. If she ever needed anything she knew she could ask him if needed. I was sad when he moved and I'm even sadder to hear of his passing. I pray God's comfort on his family.

Anybody who knew Adriano would agree that he was one of the good guys.
He and I grew up about a half a block away from each other, and his lovely parents would always walk past and stop to talk with mine. Every once in a while over the years I would see Adriano out somewhere and and his face would always light up in recognition and we would catch up about our families. I see his pictures here, and see both his parents in him. What an amazing human being. I’m so incredibly sorry for your monumental loss. Adriano will never be forgotten.

To the Bertoia family. I recently learned of the passing of Adriano. I have very fond memories of Adriano during our respective childhoods, St. Thomas School, growing-up in Riverside and our goofing - off as youngsters are inclined to do. I valued our friendship. My heartfelt condolences to your extended family.

I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Adriano Bertoia today. On behalf of my wife and myself I extend our deepest condolences and sympathies to Luisa and all of Adriano's family and friends. Adriano and I attended trade school together at St. Clair college and became good friends. Although Adriano and I did not see each other often our paths would cross from time to time. Whenever I saw Adriano I was always greeted by his big, beautiful smile. We will all miss this exceptional human being. the last time I saw Adriano was at church. I am confident that today Adriano is with our saviour in paradise! God bless Adriano and his family. Sam and Josie Riddick

Dearest Bertoia Family!
I first met Adrian at St. Clair College back when he was studying to be an electrician. He was always kind to everyone. Years later my younger sister biked with a group of people and Adrian was one of them happy and loving life. When I was a young mom and wanted to get back into biking Adrian took me to the bike shop but not before bringing me and my family cinnabun which of course did not have one himself. Adrian was a true friend, he was family. We all broke bread together with all my family at my parent's home on holidays and special events. Adrian was a very good friend to all who knew him. Adrian attended my father's 90th birthday. We were so happy for him he shared he married the love of his life his soul mate and his mother loved her. Maria (Luisa) was in Columbia visiting her mom so we met her later. All those who know Adrian will say every day with him was a good day. His life with Maria elevated, it became every day was a great day you could see it in his eyes and expression. Adrian thank you for the laughter and fun memories you shared with all of our families. We will always treasure the memories you left us. Love and prayers from Mary & Ian Douglas, Natalie, Adam, and Cole.

Thanks for all the beautiful memories and moments we could share together, I will never forget our conversations, our time together with friends, our games of tennis and chess. You enriched all our lives and made the world a better place. It has been a privilege to get to know you and not just call you a great friend, but my brother. While we are all full of sadness and feel tremendous pain to see you go, we take some comfort knowing that you are in a beautiful place. Take care my brother - until one day we will meet again!

I was very saddened to hear about Adrian’s passing. I remember the very first time I met him, down by the river while riding my bike. Adrian stopped to help me because the chain on my bike had fallen off. He was friendly and extremely kind to take the time to help a stranger out. We became friends from that moment on. Adrian will be truly missed, my condolences to the family.

You are family to us and I hope you come spend some time with us at the cottage this summer!
Rest in paradise Adrian, you will be missed.

Adrian and I shared a locker in grade 9 and were friends through high school. We have crossed passed paths many times over the years and when we did it always felt no time had passed in between. He was a great and fun loving guy. I was devastated when I heard about his illness and terribly sad about his passing. Eternal rest grant onto him o Lord.

Adrian & I have a good number of friends in common, and we had met way back when we were in school.
It was quite a shock to me to hear the sad news of his passing on Social Media, especially since Nancy & I are away this winter, so can't come by for the visitation, but know that I too will miss his kind smile & fun conversations of memories that we had shared on & off through the years.
