WE used to live upstairs from Frankie and Johnie’s. Would love a copy of this photo. Alsp that was Teresa Delbalso in photo with Father Gasberre blessing the dough. If it was a larger photo that was my mother next to her. We have this photo was in the Plain Dealer I believe.
I’ll never forget the time I drove by Corbo’s early one Sunday morning in 1978 and it had been sprayed with bullets.
Ah, the good old days.
I don’t remember this. I also think you’re not being honest. We’re these good old days in your mind?
First, I was being sarcastic about it being the “good old days” and yes, it happened. I saw it.
