1275 Park Boulevard  was the home of my aunt and uncle,  Joseph and Rose DiMassimo and their children, Joseph and Evelyn DiMassimo Berenato. That corner house had an apartment on the third floor and my parents and many others lived there for several years.  My uncle Joe's brother Eugenio Dimassimo and his wife Vitoria DiMassimo and their son Gabriel DiMassimo lived at 1275 Park Boulevard when they arrived from Italy as well until 1961 or 62.

I have learned that prior to my mother and father living on the third floor apt at this address one of the friends and his wife lived there.  He was a Camden Fireman, Leonard Iannelli along with his wife Olga.  I had heard this story all my life about poor Lenny getting killed so young but I never knew them or I was too young to remember any of them..

Mrs. Iannelli came from San Bartelomeo, Italy.  That is the same place my grandparents Anthony and Lorenzina Petrillo came from.  I don't know if they all knew each other back there or they became friends in Camden because they were from the same town.
