With heavy hearts, we share the passing of our beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend, Adrian.

Adrian "Pixel Rican" Mateo will be remembered as a bright and loving soul whose laughter, creativity, and kindness touched everyone who knew him. His presence could fill any room with warmth, and his joyful spirit brought comfort and light to those around him.

Through his art, Adrian expressed the beauty of his imagination and his deep pride in his Puerto Rican heritage. Under the name Pixel Rican, he created pieces that celebrated family, culture, and the joy of belonging. His artwork was a true reflection of his heart and the love he carried for those closest to him.

Adrian's time with us was far too short, but his light continues to shine in every memory, every smile, and every life he touched. He will be remembered always for his humor, his compassion, and the love he shared so freely with his family and friends.

Visitation for Adrian is Saturday, November 8, 2025 from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Northlake Funeral Home.
