  1. I am the daughter of the late Arthur Joseph Trovato. I am the granddaughter of Francesca Bonavita Trovato and Carmine
    Trovato. Years ago when my grandmother Francesca died, my father went to Boston to take care of her affairs. He came
    across evidence of a Joseph Trovato who existed or had existed. This would have been his brother. Also my father probably
    spent his very early years in an orphanage. Did Joseph also spend time in an orphanage? I see where the donations are
    directed to.

    I would love to speak with anyone who has any knowledge of the relationship between my dad Attilio Giuseppe Trovato and Joseph Trovato.

    Thank you and warmly,
    Denise Lane Trovato
