MISSIO, Adriano Romeo. 30/01/39 - 24/04/13 Dear Dad, you taught me many things, both good and bad. But the most important things you left me were your amazing and infectious sense of humour, quick wit, your generosity to everyone who was lucky enough to know you. All of my friends recount fun stories of you and impressions you left on them. Your unique and amazing ability to communicate with anyone will never be forgotten. We will always love you and I am proud to be your son. _ Clare your daughter in- law, Bella and Oscar your grandchildren. Ciao x
