Conversation with Dominic Ragucci (recorded by Joe Ragucci):
As we were talking, I asked my father why I never saw Joe Nardi and his family at Grandma and Grandpa Nardi’s home. He explained that Antoinette liked to go out alone at night to bars and drink. My grandparents thought this was inappropriate behavior for their son’s wife. This resulted in a rift between them that was never settled.
Conversation with Dominic Ragucci – recorded by Joseph Ragucci
Dom always talks to Rose and I about my mother and his first wife Rose. He rarely talked about her when he was married to Marge. But when Marge died he felt no restrictions to talk about what he feels. It is clear that Rose was the love of his life. He constantly talks about talking to her when things are not going right or he wants help for someone. For example, when his sister Angelina died last week he told us that the first thing he did was ask Rose to take care of his sister. He is strong believer that he will meet her when he passes from this world. And, because of that, he says that he has no fear of dying.
