Was that the Cappabanco (sp) family? I think they lived on Walnut St in GC. I lived in GC until 1971 and went to St Pats and GCHS.
I drove thru there last year when I was in Melville for work . Not like it use to be.

Yeah, that sounds like the name. I don't really remember their name but that sounds close. I haven't been to GC in 40 years or so.

In the early 80's I taught at St. Dominic's in Oyster Bay, right next to Glen Cove. I'm sure I had a Cappobianco (little different spelling than Whiplash's) in one of my classes and seem to remember another enrolled at the same time. Wonder if it's the same family?

By then I'm sure that if it was the same family, it had to be one of the kid's kids. When I knew the big family in the 60's the youngest was 2 and the oldest was 24.

My sons friend was Home-schooled. He played on the High School Football and LaCrosse teams and had no social issues whatsoever. He was pretty much the same as all the rest of the kids just a little better educated.

But who are we to judge how well adjusted other people are? We're all enthralled by what is essentially an anti-social sport...
