I had the good fortune to live in Berwyn in the 1960's. I worked at Eddie Novak's Union 76 on 29th and Harlem, and Fiore "Fifi" Buccieri (MR. Buccieri as we called him) lived around the corner at 29th & Maple. I lived down the block on Wisconsin, along with Al d'Andrea and his family. Went to school with his lovely daughters Patty & Maura. As for Fifi, I washed his car almost every week and serviced it many times. He was loved by all his neighbors, for his help with lawn care & snow removal, and his generosity (I always got a $5 tip, and this was the '60's!).

I was widely known in our community that the actual reason he tortured and killed Jackson was that he wanted Jackson's wife for himself. And true to the mob code of those days, he actually married Jackson's widow about a year later.
