one of my fondest memories was listening to Mr. Mineo laugh and laugh at the three stooges, which always seemed to be on when i was over the house. And how generous he was to buy me a plane ticket back to RI. I was in college, my dad lost his job and they moved to Pa, i was in town for a wedding and when the Mineos brought me to the airport i was too late and missed the plane. i didnt have a dime. Mr Mineo said, No problem, wait here, went to the counter and bought me a ticket on the next flight out. I couldn't thank him enough and he said, thats what families are for.
My thoughts and prayers are with u guys. I will miss him too.
