I was excited when I searched your name to come across your blog. I know you are very busy but I thought you might be able to tell me a little bit more about this print. Dear Mr. Castagno,

TO BEGIN WITH; I have no knowledge where in Calbria my mother came from....her name was Maria Grazia....she was probably orphaned young because she was raised my the Suppa family in Philadelphia. Her maiden name was Leone; her first marriage name was Vitale, 2nd marriage name Castagno. My Castagno family in Italy lives in Giffoni Valle Piana in the provence of Salerno. I never lived in Hatboro....(did you mean that John Castagno lived in Hatboro??) Did the Primavera family originate from Calabria; did John Castagno's family originate from the provence of Salerno? Thank you for reading my life's story and for your kind words. John Castagno Dear Edi Ptimavera:

I befriended her on Martha's Vineyard in the late 1990s. She kindly sent me a photograph of herself addressed to me and signed. She was a sweet and kind individual, a wonderful actress, a warm human being. Her photograph is in my studio .....I see it often as a wonderful reminder of her. She has left behind a legacy of many motion pictures. John Castagno Patricia Neal 1926-2010

What I think is an extremely bad manner procedure practiced
today is “SILENCE”……when a question is posed for an answer…..
it is given no recognition…..JUST SILENCE……when the receiver of the question does not want to deal with it. SUCH BAD MANNERS….SUCH IGNORANCE…….A sad commentary on today’s attitude.
