Frank Bruno was an electrician, who after the "Great Depression" opened his own electrical shop. In the picture here he is holding a couple of lamps he was selling from the shop. He died in his late 30's, leaving my Grandmother to raise five children, four girls and one boy. Grandma lived mostly in Brooklyn, NY - around Coney Island Avenue.

Great Grandfather Mario Bruno was killed in a "hunting accident" in Sicily. I think
he was from Messina. His wife, Josephine married a man named Berticelli, and moved to America,
along with my young Grandfather, Frank Bruno.

And the following is Great-grandma as I remember her....
