I love this picture of Funzi, apparently the first member to be convicted under the RICO act. An old timer and a confidant of Don Carlo. I always wonder what would have happened if Carlo Gambino had lived for another 10 years, would he have also fallen foul of the RICO act, would Castellano have come into power? Thanks for posting Stephen. DC

Actually, I respectfully disagree; to my recollection, the first gentlemen convicted under RICO was from the upstate area of New York by the name of Pat Naterelli (phonic).  I was with him in Atlanta, Georgia, and I can attest, he was a man's man whom oooh respect without airs.  A class act.

Fair enough, need to check my source.
