Joseph Mancini

Joe Mancini was my dad, he passed away while my mother was pregnant with me. I was just wondering if anyone here knew him, and if you could tell me about him? Any stories? good and bad lol.
 
He was born September 26, 1950 and he passed away July 10 ,1982.
 
Thanks everyone,
 
Andrea

Hi Andea,   My name is Greg, I was a very close friend of your father in the late 60's and 70's.  he was living on 6th ave. and I lived on the corner of 4th and wellington. I could tell you a few stories if you're interested. Let me know.   If anyone out there used to hang around Maws or Leon Houle's pool hall upstairs , drop me a line.                      Bye for now,                      Greg and Wendy

I remember 2 Mancini brothers-used to "hang out" at a restaurant called "Ma's'" on Verdun Avenue across from Woodland school-Joe liked to sketch and draw and I ended up being an art director-I remember him asking me to bring my drawings for him to see at Ma's place..which I did.You can write to me at cattywhiskers@hotmail.com

I knew Joe and Danny Mancini. Whatever happened to Danny?

I've recently come across some Mancini's from Saint Henri and I wonder if there is a connection. More than a few Italians moved to Verdun from there.

Hi Andrea
I'm friends with Danny Mancini's ex-wife Linda Grenier. I'm sure she would be able to recall many stories about her brother-in-law. I remember meeting him often at Linda's and Danny's. Let me know if you're interested and I'll hook you up. Linda now lives in Calgary. Apparently Danny Mancini lives in Winnipeg. Are you still in contact with Johnny Mancini. He was Joe's and Danny's younger brother. He was married to Rita Malcolm.
Hope this helps a bit.
Joanne
