Adriana Keiaua – Obituary

Adriana Keiaua was Born on November 27, 1955, in Rosiori De Vede and grew up in Romania with her parents, Alexandru and Victoria, a sister, Lili, and a brother, Adrian. She escaped communism and moved to the United States in 1988 with her husband, Sandu Keiaua, and her two children, Leonard and Constantin (Chris). She made the Atlanta suburbs her home and joined the local Romanian community. In the 1990s, Adriana opened up one of the first European Deli markets in Atlanta, serving the Romanian and European communities in Atlanta.

Adriana was a member of the First Romanian Baptist Church and was related to Tina Popovich and Mike Popovich as their sister-in-law. She was well-known for her generosity, kindness, and immense heart, always willing to help family members and strangers. Adriana enjoyed assisting those in need and adored showering her children and grandchildren with love and affection.

Sadly, she became ill and passed away on January 2, 2024, finding eternal peace in the presence of God. Although her absence leaves a painful void in our hearts, we take comfort in knowing that she’s now in a better place, that she will be here with us in a different way and free from pain. We will all miss Adriana greatly and will forever cherish the memories we shared with her. Rest in peace, dear Mom. We will meet again one day.
