Hank was a good guy and even was a bouncer at Brown Derby and Players Club off Shore Parkway (where he once encountered and straightened out Junior Gotti I can elaborate if anyone wants to know that story) . RIP Hank.

Another character from my days was Cowboy who was once with Toddo Marino a Genovese capo , another was Buster a Gambino Associate and a third was the always well dressed and bodyguarded Philly Dogs Mazza a Gambino Soldier .

I'm intrigued by the junior Gotti story? What happened?

And who is Philly Dogs???
