Obituary
Aldo Vettese passed away peacefully in his home in Barrie in his 79th year on July 25th, 2022, with loved ones by his side, including his beloved wife and partner of 43 years, Laura. He was born in Cassino, Italy on October 31st, 1942, first born to Serafina and Vincenzo Vettese. Big brother to Assunta, Franco, Louie (predeceased), Benny, Felicia (predeceased), Philip, Billy and Anna. Respectful and caring brother-in-law to their spouses, loving uncle to their children and grand children.
Aldo was a highly regarded, successful, professional photographer whom, together with his wife built a photography business that was always changing and evolving with the times. He trained many photographers to excel at the craft. Always striving for perfection in himself and anyone that worked for him and with him. A man of integrity with many clients becoming life-long friends. Aldo tackled any job. If you didn’t know who to ask to get something done, ask Aldo.
Retirement did not slow this man down. It was another chapter that took him back to his music with friends of his youth. He never stopped learning and growing his skills in photography, music and even cooking. It had to be perfect and always his way. Aldo loved having people around him but his best friend was always his wife, his partner, Laura.
He loved animals and adored his little toy poodle, Elvis, and Elvis worshipped Aldo. The two of them were one. Elvis stuck to Aldo as soon as they met and Aldo made sure Elvis was always happy and never alone. Elvis passed in 2014 and now in 2022 they will be joined for all eternity.
Aldo’s family and friends will miss receiving Aldo’s emailed good wishes for Christmas and Easter every year.
At 79, you would not say someone’s life had been cut short but for Aldo it was cut short. He had plans for the next 10 years, but unfortunately, God had a different plan.
Aldo, you will be missed by all.
