The Honorable John O. Pastore, 1963; Honorable Christopher Del Sesto, 1970; Honorable Albert E. DeRobbio, 1990; and Lt. Gen. Reginald A. Centracchio, 2006.
Those are some of the names on a list of 52 legendary Rhode Islanders who have been honored with the Verrazzano Day Observance Committee's prestigious "Man of the Year" award.
Last Saturday evening before a sellout gathering of nearly 400 people inside the Venus De Milo in Swansea, Dr. Giulio G. Diamante, M.D., the medical director of Johnston-based OPTX Rhode Island, had his name added to the list of prominent Italian-Americans who have received the coveted honor since the Honorable Antonio A. Capotosto was named "Man of the Year" in 1962.
