Adrian was a young, troubled soul, yet one filled with love and a quiet strength that touched those around him. He spent much of his time alongside his father, working in roofing, where he learned the value of hard work and dedication.
As a child, Adrian found joy on the soccer field, where his energy and laughter brought light to his teammates and family. He also cherished traveling to Mexico in his younger years, creating lasting memories while surrounded by family and culture he deeply loved.
Though his journey in life was not always easy, Adrian will always be remembered for the moments of warmth, love, and connection he shared with those closest to him.
He is survived by dad Jose Mercado and Maria Mercado who will forever carry his memory in their hearts.
