In telling his, and his father’s story, a deeper mystery emerges from the height of the days when mafia ruled- in a murky world between murder and a different code of ethics, “I know what your father did…” Is not said in fear, but with gratitude, awe and respect. At the heart of this unfathomable memoir is how Chuck managed to stay on the straight and narrow, accomplishing his teenage dream of becoming a PGA Tour Player. Leading him down that road were the unlikeliest of teachers and mentors: the mob. With the help of Author Peter Cimino, after a lifetime, Chuck finally told his story. These are his last words and his legacy.
