Dear Zambano family, On behalf of my family we (The Corbetta family) would like to express our deepest sympathies to your family at the passing of Gino. My father(Jerry Corbetta)held him in the highest esteem and always referred to him as a "handsome prince of a man". I had the honor and pleasure of working along with Gino in my early years with the company starting in 1979 at Union Carbide and continuing through the years at several jobs in NYC including the College of Insurance, North River ,59th street Pier, The Beacon Newburgh Bridge and so on. It was a pleasure and an honor to work beside him all those years,once again our deepest sympathies.
