Sad News: Guiseppe Caputo, Founder Of Caputo's On Court Street, Passed Away
A neighborhood institution, Giuseppe Caputo will be sorely missed.  I agree with Katia, he was heartbroken after his wife passed.  My condolences to the family. I am very sorry to have missed the opportunity to pay my respects.
