Colombo Update

Former Colombo Capodecina Vincent 'Vinny Sicilian' Gugliaro died last month.

This leaves Vincent Aloi (89y) and Alphonse 'Funzi' D'Ambrosio (98y) as the only known surviving members from the Profaci era.

Joseph 'Fat Richie' Zorzi (94y) may also still be alive, although at least one source claimed he was murdered around late 1969.
