He's nearly 93, I think.
Wow Good Genes ? Or maybe just stayed in shape by punching Record executives in the face..?

If I’m not mistaken, back in the 60s Corky Vastola was close to Rocky Infelise of Chicago (at the time an associate but later a capo), when the latter was spending time in NJ due to trouble back home.

Yeah that's where I grew up a Gambino capo bought my family house and tore it down and built a mansion.

He was sentenced to 15yrs or more for extortion in like 1987ish. He was free on appeal for a few years well his appeals worked there way out till about 1990. I think him and Gotti had a personal beef. There Brooklyn guys originally. Corky was a decade older. They were both in lewisburg in the 70tys there a picture someone just posted in the Gambino section. Corky was a major money maker in those days. Gotti not so much. Gotti pressured riggi into killing corky but it just never materialized he must have been warned

Anyone have any good info on Corky? He lived down the street from me in Colts Neck NJ. I believe his wife still owns the house. I know he was DeCavacante but it seems he didn't really make any moves with them. He was big in the record industry with the Chin and made some moves with the Gambinos. Enough to piss Gotti off to try and have him taken out. He was banned from Atlantic City and was a big name in the 80's but I never heard anything after he got out of prison.
