If they're even alive today (which I doubt for most of them), Cicero is a fossil at 98 years old; the Galluzzos are 87 and 89, respectively; the Giordonos are 87 and 85; and Pro is 93....These fellas, if they're still alive, don't count!
But there are still the Fiorenza, Frisella, Leumbroni brothers, Saladino and a few others. They may have brought in a few more guys too, zips, etc. But overall, if Rockford is still active, they're action is limited. Still, I think they may have more going on than a lot of other areas of the country. Gambling, etc.
Why don't they count? We see age doesn't play a factor in activity all the time. Not saying they're active but to dismiss them simply because of age would be a big mistake.
True (but with a caveat). Some older guys for sure are still active. But once fellas starts hitting 87, 89, and a whopping 93 an 98 - the party's over! These guys I listed are ALL late-80s to almost 100 years old....
99.99999% of guys, even in diehard areas like NYC, by that point in time? They're either long retied, at deaths door, or have one foot on the grave already and are in ill-health or senile.
IMO, common sense dictates that these are not active fellas...by any stretch of the imagination!
