I spent some time with Andrew Russo who loved Hugh very much. Hugh & James Cahn where and are Andrews best friends. He told me many stories of then growing up in south Brooklyn. Eventually I met up with Hugh in MDC Bklyn in the SHU in 97. It was an honor to meet such a well respected Irish fella from the neighborhood. However I think a when I did bunk with him in the hole he was already starting to lose his scruples. Again this man was very well respected and had more clout then many captains on the street. And yes apples came from his Rosie red cheeks which his nephew Damon also had.
