Nesich, Adrienne Violetta - November 28, 1974-December 26, 2022

Nesich, Matteo Christopher - February 2, 2013-December 26, 2022

In a tragic incident on December 26, 2022, our family lost two beautiful, innocent souls. Predeceased by Adrienne’s mother, Sandy McAllister, and grandparents Mac and Vi McAllister, and Lillian MacLeod. Left to grieve are Adrienne’s son Jaiden (Mateja) Corbett, father, Norman (Joyce) Hardy, older sisters Carla (Keith) Barker and Colleen Hardy, and twin sister, Alana Hardy, as well as niece Keeley (Mike), and nephews James, Graeham and Khaydan (Sarah), Matteo’s grandparents Joe (Alicia) Nesich, and Rose Nesich, uncles Mike (Charlene) and Richard (Alyssa), and cousins Emily, Veronika and Zachary. Adrienne and Matteo will also be mourned by their many friends.

Adrienne was a loyal friend and held her friendships dear. She touched so many lives with her kindness, humour, bright smile and love for life. Music was important to Adrienne. She particularly loved country music and could be seen at any country music concert dancing in her red cowboy boots. She and Jen, her friend of over 30 years, went to every NKOTB concert they could, where they would relive their teenage years. Adrienne was a hardworking and dedicated employee of Loblaws for over a decade and was always willing to go above and beyond for her colleagues and customers. Adrienne loved baking, and her famous peanut butter cup cookies were a staple at any gathering. Above all, she loved her family, and we will all miss her so very much.

Matteo was a vibrant 9-year-old who loved gaming and his Nintendo Switch. He would gladly challenge you to a game of Mario Kart and beat you easily. He loved racing around on his ATV, going to the cottage with Nonno Joe and Babcia Alicia, and spending time with his big brother and best friend Jaiden, whom he adored. Matteo loved the outdoors, and fishing with Jaiden was one of his favourite things. Matteo shared Adrienne’s love of music and could sing along to any Elvis song. And he loved his family very much.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating in their memory to an organization that supports survivors of domestic violence, such as the YWCA (https://ywcacanada.ca/) or Shelter Movers (https://www.sheltermovers.com/). And above all, please keep Adrienne and Matteo’s memory alive, and hug your loved ones tight.
