Here to clarify a few things..

My father knew Jimmy Emma and Gerry Pappa as he is around the same age as them..

He remembers them and what happened to them, Pappa was killed at a restaurant as most people know.

From what he remembers and what he knows, (he knew jimmy pretty well) Jimmy was killed while washing his car on new Utrecht ave

Jimmy was a short guy but built like a bull, nobody messed with him.

However, Jimmy messed with the wrong people and became a problem that needed to he taken care of..

That's what I know and what I was always told when my dad told me about his old friends (that was one of countless stories)

What was Tommy Snake and the Mole's real names?

Makes you think. Makes you think about the people in your life. And when I think, I think of Neil. If he were here now what would he say? He would say "John what's it about? What's life about... if you dont go through it as a man's man?". He'd say "Suck it up, take the fall do the time. That made you what you are. That makes you what you are. How long have we been around this thing of ours? This Cosa Nostra? 120 years. What's it about? It's about the rules, perimeters. You take the beating for a friend, you don't run, you don't lay down, you don't betray who you are. What you are.

Mafia Wife by Lynda Milito Excellent book, she tells it like it is as the of a wife of a gangster. What I found really interesting is how she explains that people think its glamorous or exciting to be a gangsters wife,child etc. but they don't understand it until they live it. It really can mess up a person, but also make them stronger too.

Your talking about the late 1950s early 1960s, guys did walk around with Iphones snappng pictures. I never saw a bunch of street guys take a camera out and start posing, it just was not done. Back in the day cameras came out during the holidays and pictures were taken in the house with the family. I do think we will see any pictures of Jimmy Emma anytime soon.

Don Corleone, I'm gonna leave you now, because I know you are busy.

Sonny: Mickey Mantle? That's what you're upset about? Mantle makes $100,000 a year. How much does your father make? If your dad ever can't pay the rent and needs money, go ask Mickey Mantle. See what happens. Mickey Mantle don't care about you. Why care about him?

Vincent Patrick Emma, AKA Jimmy Emma. 1942-1967 . I have a picture of Jimmy, looks like a HS yearbook pic. I am unable to post a pic on this site. If you'd like I could email the pic to someone that may be better able to post than me.

You gonna finish that?
