Piero’s death at 81, which occurred last Wednesday, left deep sorrow among his loved ones, colleagues, and followers. A few days after the singer’s final farewell, his family shared an emotional farewell letter accompanied by unpublished photographs that trace different moments of his personal life.
Through a post on social media, the artist’s relatives gathered memories that reveal a more intimate and sensitive side, beyond the stage. The images reflect his bond with his children and other everyday moments that are part of his family story.
“We, the family of Piero, will always keep his presence alive. We will remember him as he was, an exceptional being who knew very well what it meant to truly ‘love’,” they expressed in the message, highlighting the mark the musician left on their lives.
Piero’s Family Farewell Letter
In the post, the relatives also outlined the composition of the singer’s family. “Piero has three children: Juan De Benedictis, Giuliano De Benedictis and Fiorella De Benedictis,” they detailed.
Juan is the eldest of the three siblings, while Giuliano and Fiorella are the fruits of the artist’s relationship with Mariana Schettini.
The message was accompanied by a carousel of photographs that allowed reconstructing different stages of Piero’s life. Among them, there were birthday postcards with Juan, both smiles, and other images showing the kids when they were babies.
They also shared photographs of Piero with Giuliano during his childhood, as well as family memories that until now had not been widely circulated. Some of the postcards show the musician with his younger children and Mariana Schettini during a trip to New York.

Another aspect that drew attention was the presence of images of Juan De Benedictis from a young age, accompanying his father on stage. The photographs reflect how music has been part of their bond since early childhood.
To that memory were added other father-and-son snapshots during walks and moments shared outside the artistic realm. The collection formed a nostalgic journey through different stages of the singer’s life and the bonds he built with his loved ones.
The publication received numerous comments from followers who came to bid him farewell with words of affection. Many also shared memories tied to his songs and the importance his music had over the years.
In this way, Piero’s family chose to honor him from an intimate and personal place. Through the letter and the photographs, their loved ones remembered the artist for his sensitivity, his charisma, and the love that will keep his presence alive.
