Beloved husband, father, father-in-law, nonno and bis-nonno.
A man of rich experiences and deep conviction, colourful stories, uncompromising work ethic, practical skills, solid values and committed to an enduring love story between partners, to be cherished forever.
A courageous immigrant who could not imagine at the time, the impact his decision to make a life here would have on so many with whom paths crossed. Although an only child, Romeo claims an extended family of 25 members, and counting. Among us: Beloved wife and life partner Bettina (Brun del Re), children Allessandra (Vance Millar), Marco (Chantal Miner), Fabio (Lisa Zanetti), grandchildren Nathalie (Timothy), Ryan (Stephanie), Julian, Robyn (Kyle), Lucas, Katrina (Andy), Julia (Keaghan) and Sofia (Mark) and great grandchildren Liam, Eli, Lana Rose, Harvey and Florence.
Romeo will be remembered and valued as kind, generous, opinionated, clever, wise, unapologetic, exemplary, admired, loving and very much loved.
A memorial service will be held at 10 o’clock, the morning of March 17th, 2023, at the Beechwood Funeral Home, located at 280 Beechwood Ave., Ottawa.
In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate contributions made to your favoured charities, in memory of Romeo.
Grazie per la guida, gli esempi, ricordi indelebili e tutti gli aneddoti, storie del patrimonio che insieme, hanno fatto della tua vita, un successo, una belleza e per noi, un piacere speciale di condividere.
"La vita e bella, per chi la sa godere!" - Ci lasci tanta bontà.

From eggies in bed to pan e salame to chestnuts to music to a large family to beautiful gardens and “my” tree- there are so many memories and markers Nonno has left us with so we can continue to draw him into our lives every day. Grazie Nonno per tutti! ❤️
Ryan, Stephanie and Lana Millar
Our hearts and our family are filled and blessed by the results of your courage, hard work and values - but our hearts are now left with an indescribable void. Thank you Nonno/Bisnonno for all that you did for us. We love you so much, miss you beyond words and your memory shall always be a blessing.
Offering all our love and sympathy as we so fondly remember this fine and gentle man. May you be comforted by loving memories, during this very difficult time.
