Sad News: Guiseppe Caputo, Founder Of Caputo's On Court Street, Passed Away

How sad.  Guiseppe Caputo, the founder of Caputo's Fine Foods, everyone's favorite Italian gourmet store at 460 Court Street, passed away on March 21st.  A notice has been taped to the rolled down gate and a big  bouquet of flowers has been placed right in front of of the store.
Many may remember Guiseppe.  For years, he was busy in the store making fresh pasta and mozzarella alongside his wife. Later, his two sons joined the business.
A few years ago, Guiseppe lost his wife, and was heartbroken about his loss. I don't think he ever recovered.  I had not seen him in the store recently.
I would like to extend my condolence to his family.  May Guiseppe's memory live on through his family and his wonderful store.

Thank you, Carey, for letting me know.

at Caputo's on Court Street,
because it was steaming up the windows
and its deliciousness was
beckoning me inside.
