DAD
My Father, My Don
My Father was known as Jimmy Nap
He was born Vincenzo Napoli and his
father
was a Duke in Italy Knighted by
King Alberto 1 knowing of this my Father
went to the Vatican in
the 1970's
to recover the family crest that cost
him $10,000 to bring back to the US.
Before
he died he gave it to me. The
crest has writing on it in Italian. I had
it translated into english
