HUNDREDS of mourners packed into a city church to pay their last respects to a talented musician who died this month.
Alessio Adorisio was remembered by family and friends for his love of music and football and devotion to his family.
During today’s service at St George’s Catholic Church, in Sansome Place, Worcester, a close friend and fellow band member paid tribute to an inspirational man.
“Everyone who knew Alessio knew he had two passions: His love of football and his passion for music,” said Sean Gandy.
“Which ever team he was associated with he gave his all, he played like a true Italian.
“Alessio was an inspiration to many. He made an everlasting difference to everyone he met.”
The 23-year-old was on his way home from an HSBC talent contest in Birmingham on Wednesday, June 10, when the Alfa Romeo convertible he was driving crashed into a lorry.
He died hours later as a result of his injuries.
