The Worst That Could Happen

It’s been a tough month for the Italian Festival.

First Lou Santella — former president of the Sons of Italy, and a stalwart volunteer for decades — died.

Now Johnny Maestro — lead singer of the Crests, the Del-Satins and the Brooklyn Bridge, and a favorite performer at the Festival for years — has also passed away.

This summer’s Italian Fest should honor both men well.
