Here's an interesting fact I just learned about him.

He was the Best Man at John and Yoko's wedding.

Didn't he play in that movie filmed in Boston where they ripped off a ton of cash. 60's I think based on a true story. Damn I can't think of it.

The Friends of Eddie Doyle

Friends of Eddie coyle, 70's and guns I think...

Yes sir- e. But Coyle not doyle. Great flick. Thanks

He wasn't Lennon's best man, he met Lennon and Yoko through his photographer/journalist wife who worked for the Rolling Stone magazine. Lennon was his best man, not the other way around.

He was hilarious and especially as Ray Barrones father.

The Friends of Eddie Coyle was about a bunch of low life mobsters. Coyle was supplying guns to a gang that was robbing banks and was suspected by the Mob of ratting them out, which resulted in his getting a .22 caliber lobotomy coming home from a "Broons" game.

Or at least that was the thrust of the book that the movie was based on.

Frank got his wish to get away from Marie.. :p

Ahh he was awesome.. made me laugh

RIP

Yep Your right I read the article wrong.....sorry guys

Friends of Eddie Coyle starred Robert Mitchum also.....was filmed in Boston as well as parts of Weymouth and Sharon!! Great flick!:kewl:

Your right Proffessor. It was the Brinks Armored Car Svc that was robbed, but it was in the 1950's.. In Sommersville,Ma.

Took place right at the end of Commercail st in Boston..Its now a parking garage..The old Brinks building

Close,
It's on Prince st. in the north end.
I remember as a kid my grandfather telling me the story of how he kind of knew Tony Pino, and in fact, had the truck they used in the heist at his repair shop for some work and to make sure it was running good, a week before the robbery.
My uncle and father who both worked at the shop confimed the story to me!

I liked Peter on Everybody loves Raymond

best thing about that show imho.


who else could pull off a tap dancing frankensteins monster either

Ron its on the corner of Prince and Commercial St..Couldnt think of the side street..Thanks..:bo:

RIP - Peter.

Holy crap.

RIP Frank Barone.


Yup. They did a scene at Tony's Pizza in Columbian Square. I lived right down the street.

He was also in the best XFiles episode ever. He will be missed.

Very talented guy, class act!
 

The heartburn commercials:bgi: were very funny. What an epitaph. Here lies the guy who was best man at John and Yokos' wedding!
