  My father in law is buried near him in Calvary Cemetery. I am also a friend and former neighbor of his family. Such a wonderful family and they carry on his legacy with honor!

  @tcm Here is the first major film, The Black Hand (1950), a docudrama about Joe Petrosino, discussing his assasination. https://youtu.be/9WaxI8-Bl_k The first "Black Hand," film, "the first movie about the Mafia," was a ten minute silent film made in 1906. https://youtu.be/ukG1FodUM5A
