"Rocco , Mark and Family, I just heard the news of your Fathers passing. My sincere sympathy to the Cipparone Family. He was always a gentleman and a class act. I go back to the early 80's with your Dad. I haven?t seen him in quite a while , but thought of him often. Definitely Old School Italian. Don't get any better. Rip My Buddy, Sincerely Tommy Lauria "
