With the old man taking a Dirt Nap, it seems that his son, Joey "The Lump" Marzetti, is now the brains behind the Marzetti Family. With his ability to move bootleg across borders untouched, Joey has long been frustrating the Powers that be. He would love to find out who "off'ed"
his Pop and maybe he'll get his chance tonight. |

Presiding over the service this evening is none other than the one, the only Father Patrick Francis! A long time friend of the family, Father Francis is the logical choice to guide this tearful farewell to a devoted man of peace. Father Francis has had the honor of officiating at most of the
Funerals for mob members and his understanding of these complex families helps him ease the pain and sorrow of the Family and Friends that are gathered. Though he preaches that crime does not pay, he still appreciates the tithes that families, such as the Marzettis, are able to give to the causes of the church. Father Francis will be available
after the service to hear confession for those attending who see the error of their ways in this world. | |

While she hates J. Edgar Hoover with a passion, Ruby Marzetti reserves her true loathing for those who mess with her family. A one time chorus line girl, Ruby drifted in and out of the family "business" until her Father "acquired" her this speakeasy, "Ruby's
Place", to run. Reserved but strong, she knows what life is about. If she catches the guy who murdered her Dad, he'll be sleeping with the fishes so fast, he won't have time to lace up his concrete shoes. |

Dedicated to the safety of the Marzetti Family, Luka "the Nose" Blowa, is here to make sure the funeral service moves along safely. Raised by poor southern sharecroppers, Luka eventually rode the rails until he settled in with the Marzettis as the bouncer for 'Ruby's
Place'. Luka is strong as an ox but mentally, well, lets just say he has all the cans that go in a six pack, he just lacks the plastic thingy that holds them all together. |
