Children of the 1940s/50s will mourn the passing of Luigi Tortolano, a legend of the Melbourne Café, Saltcoats - RIP.
Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.

Yes PT, he helped run the Melbourne Cafe with Chalmers (Luigi's brother in law) during the late 60s - although the chip shop next door was more his patch. He was good fun and always made sure we girls working in there were dropped off right outside our doors. Funnily enough, my pal and I were just talking about him last week. Sad.....Penny Tray wrote:Children of the 1940s/50s will mourn the passing of Luigi Tortolano, a legend of the Melbourne Café, Saltcoats - RIP.
