I'm surprised to hear that. Because I always thoughts that Funzi was Napolitano by birth. I know he affiliated heavily with the Neapolitan factions


I read he was born in Castel Gandolfo, the town also served as a summer residence and vacation retreat for the pope, the leader of the Catholic Church.


We need to recheck that. I'm not so sure if that is correct.


I checked it it was mentioned in this NY Times obituary.
