Whether he was sitting on the front porch eating ice cream, playing a game of cards, singing his favourite songs, or going for a ride in his car, he lived every second to the fullest. He loved making vino and grappa, traveling the world, and taking care of his garden. In his retirement he found a passion for painting and would spend hours in his art studio painting landscapes and scenes of Italy.

He loved being surrounded by family and friends, telling stories of his past, and making people laugh every opportunity he could. Romeo was the joker of the family, who never failed to put a smile on the faces of the people he encountered.
