John was born in Ottati, Italy (Naples area) in 1905 and moved to America in 1917. This video was taped in 1987 about 8 months before he passed away. The original recording is about 10 minutes in length.
"Pop" was a very loving man who often made us laugh. We miss him dearly. "Bella Papa" (Bad Language)
I am Italian and I can relate to this, my Grandparents generation, they were amazing and loved them too!

He sounds EXACTLY like my great uncles!! LOL!! They were from Sicily though. I had SO much fun with those old Italians when I was young! They were characters, that's for sure! Thanks for sharing this!
