    Remembering John Cappelli (1927 - 2009). Aldo and John met each other in 1946 during an ocean crossing: two Americans who lived their adolescence and young adulthood in Italy during the war. Both faced it with courage, one in Tuscany and the other in Abruzzo. On the Marine Carp they talked about the future. One wanted to be a poet, the other dreamed of art. Once in the U.S., destiny separated their roads, and then reunited them again after 60 years. They discovered they had kept the same values; they were still fighters in life. The following words are from the internationally-renowned artist Aldo Tambellini, who emailed them to us shortly after he learned of John’s death.
