ANTONIO IANNONE It is only with the deepest regret that our family marks the sudden and unexpected passing of Antonio Iannone, during the early morning hours of Saturday, June 19, 2004. Antonio was born
on January 14, 1920, in Quaglietta, Avellino, Italy. In the summer of 1941, he married his loving and caring wife, Assunta, who predeceased him in 2002.
