You're right, Bronx. But I stand by my position that they did him a favor. Look how things turned out for virtually every one of his contemporaries in that family, then look at Tony.

He didn't die in the street Castellano, he didn't rot in a cage like Armone or Gallo or Gotti, and he didn't turn stoolie like Sammy (not in the most severe sense of the word, anyway). Eighty years old and living the good life. Good for him. That's all I'm trying to say smile.
