Dean Dalessio

Here is a video about my long ago friend DEAN DALESSIO who I knew from WHITESTONE , NEW YORK - I met him in 1967- We hung out with our friends at P.S. 193 school yard in Whitestone , New York for many years - He was a boy that got into trouble a lot - He was sent away to a boy's reformatory school in WARWICK , NEW YORK in late 1967 and got out in October of 1969- He was not welcomed home by his dad and step mother and a local Whitestone New York family took him in - But he behaved poorly and was asked to leave- He then went on to actually live in the streets for years adding to that a drug addiction which had him locked up a few times at RIKER'S ISLAND , New York - As I last left off with him he was in New York City - still living on the streets and homeless- in run down appearance when i last saw him in June of 1987 - by 22nd street and 2nd avenue- AFTER that I had reports from my friends in WHITESTONE , NEW YORK that he was seen often in the 40s streets of NYC sweeping the floors for local delis and stores - still homeless too -I only wish that he is ok - He has had a rough life - Anyone who can shed some light on the DEAN DALESSIO subject please do- Joe Nania a.k.a.
