His uncle was James Eppolito. They use to call him ''Jimmy the Clam''. Believe he was killed in the late 70's over a drug dispute with Nino Gaggi; and Roy Demeo.
Also Jimmy Eppolito tried to have Gaggi killed when he told Paul that Gaggi was stealing money. Unfortunetly for Eppolito he didn't realize that Pauls relationship with Gaggi was pretty strong so paul sided with Nino.
