EXTENDING DEEPEST CONDOLENCES ON THE PASSING OF LUCIO MANCINI

     Introduced By: Senator Hanna M. Gallo

     Date Introduced: April 05, 2022

     Referred To: Recommended for Immediate Consideration

     WHEREAS, It is with deep sadness that this Senate has learned of the passing of Lucio

Mancini, the beloved husband of Addolorata Mancini for fifty-eight years, the devoted father of

Danilo and his wife, Serena, Alberico and his wife, Lisa, and Marco and his wife, Bianca, and the

very proud "Nonno" of seven grandchildren, Daniel, Sofia, Julia, Marina, Simona, Valentina and

Alberico; and

     WHEREAS, Born in Itri, Italy, Mr. Mancini was a son of the late Alberico and Maria

Civita Mancini, and the brother of Concetta Marino, Pietro, Luigi and his wife, Caterina, Alba

Pannozzo, and the late Salvatore and Padre Francesco Paolo; and

     WHEREAS, A talented tailor by trade, Mr. Mancini perfected his craft in Rome and

Milan before spending four years in the Italian military. Returning to his family's home in Itri, he

met and married the love of his life, Addolorata. In 1967, he immigrated to New York where he

continued his career as a tailor, and soon thereafter, moved his family to Rhode Island; and

     WHEREAS, Over the next four decades, Mr. Mancini worked for Leader Uniform,

Kennedys, Filenes and Macy's developing a staunch and loyal following of customers who often

became good friends, visiting the family home on a regular basis for a fitting or just to say hello,

which frequently "led to a cup of espresso, glass of wine, a shot of brandy, Italian cookies and

often a full meal"; and

     WHEREAS, Lucio Mancini was a traditional and family-centered man who loved to

garden, make wine, forage for mushrooms, pickle dandelions, dig for quahogs, and keep his

freezer stocked with venison. He was a loving husband, father, Nonno, brother and friend, and he

will be dearly missed; now, therefore be it

     RESOLVED, That this Senate of the State of Rhode Island hereby extends deepest

condolences on the passing of Lucio Mancini; and be it further

     RESOLVED, That the Secretary of State be and hereby is authorized and directed to

transmit a duly certified copy of this resolution to Addolorata Mancini and Family.
