5. I had seen a few posts about it on Twitter a little while ago, but I hoped it wasn't true

If TMZ is reporting it, it must be true. Tony Sirico was one of my favorites. I've watched The Sopranos at least 50 times. I'm really sad to hear of his passing.

6. Lost Liotta. Lost Caan. Lost Sirico. 2022 is not a good year for representing the mob.
