Cobra's right that it is Andrea Riela on the right and his wife sitting far-left. From Andrea Riela's wife's obituary:

It says she was born and raised in San Giuseppe Iato, like Tony Riela.

Maybe soon we can confirm if it's Gaetano Alessi, Tommy Gambino, or someone else.

Any chance for repost Mr. Felice? Any Surveillance from 80s would be higly aprreciated. I have some photograph man in blue shirt with some hat one. I think it was your post. I got it labeled as unidentified genovese associate.

There's some resemblance but the Bono wedding photo is decades before the photo of Sciascia. Sciascia looks more youthful in the obituary photo than the Bono guy looked back then and it would mean the guy at the wedding was in his early 50s which doesn't appear to be the case.

Glad you guys are keeping on these Bono photos.

I've always thought the two guys sitting down look like brothers.
