Sad new as Lee Curreri reported that Carmine Caridi who played Bruno's Dad Angelo Martelli has died, aged 85. Rest In Peace Carmine.

Lee Said: "RIP TV Dad Carmine Caridi. I was just watching him in Prince of the City. We had some really good times shooting those scenes in the taxi on the set, and in Bruno's musical cave-basement. Truly the end of an era."

Erica Gimpel added:

"One of our Fame Cast and Family member passed away yesterday afternoon... Rest In Peace Carmine Caridi... Peace..."
