Joe "Bronx" Gambino was Carlo's nephew. The guy on the end in the photo, Sal Spatola, was Joe Bronx Gambino's nephew.
They were originally from the Borgo Nuovo area in Palermo. This JG died in the early 2000's.

Don Carlo looks incredibly emaciated in the picture, no wonder he died so soon after..

Thanks.

On Limey's mafia membership blog he lists him as Francesco Rizzo born 1897 and died 1985. Seems like he was kind of old to be given a crew in the 1960's. I guess I'm asking if anyone knows if 1897 is a correct birth year.

Anyone who's ever seen the Gotti film intro with Assante as the dapper know's the look I was going for.
Missing alot but I worked with what I had...
