About this listen
Papa, whose given name was Armando, was born at home, the fifth son in his Italian immigrant family, and the first of the family to be born in America. His mother Graziella was ill and unable to nurse him, and the doctor told Papa's father Vincenzo that the baby wouldn’t survive the night. Vincenzo held baby Armando and said, "If you're going out of the world tonight, little one, I want you to go happy." He took a crust of bread and dipped it into wine and put it to baby Armando's mouth, again, and again, and again. And in the morning, the crisis had passed. Armando had survived.
