Passed away peacefully at his home in Guelph, with his family by his
side on Tuesday, February 16, 2021. Richard Vadori age 64 years, was the
beloved husband of Sandy (Trento) Vadori. He was the loving father of
Ryan and his wife Alex and of Jordan. Richard was the proud Nonno of
Soren and Margot. He was the beloved son of Enrica Vadori and the late
Marcello (2017) and the dear brother of Mick and Lily and her partner
John Gatt. Richard was the dear brother-in-law of Cathy and her husband
Randy Morrison, Pat and her husband Henry Deter and Mike Trento and his
wife Diane. Survived also by many nieces and nephews.
Rick will be fondly remembered as the most honest and loving husband,
father, and Nonno. A true craftsman, he was generous with his plumbing
skills and his time helping those around him. Rick was a deeply skilled
bassist and golfer – Birdland and Birdies were both passions of his.
Rick’s family have established an online memorial and are asking for
memories and stories to be posted by anyone who wishes at
https://www.kudoboard.com/boards/fMUB1MnU. A celebration of life will be
held at a later date. Donations can be made to the Princess Margaret
Cancer Foundation or St. Joseph’s Health Center in Guelph.
Cremation has taken place. A private family service will be held at the
Gilbert MacIntyre & Son Funeral Home, Dublin Chapel, 252 Dublin St. N.,
Guelph with interment of the cremated remains in Marymount Cemetery at a
later date.
The family would like to extend special thanks to Dr. David Hood and to
nurse Shannon for all of their care.
