a month and a half after the positive result of the hyssop, the jeweler Mario Caporale dies

Almost a twist of fate, go to the party lights. In the mid-eighties, when Mario Caporale and his wife Camilla opened that small jewelry store in via Ciardi, Mario always wanted to make that street always a bit dark at least during the Christmas holidays and over time he instilled this custom. beautiful in many fellow merchants.

A discreet and refined goldsmith, always available to interpret the wishes of his clients, who knew that he trusted his hands to create precious objects. He would have turned sixty-four in January. And given his condition, which has definitely worsened in recent days, his family had not told him about the attempted robbery a week ago at his jewelry store in Piazza della Libertà.

The covid continues to claim victims ruthlessly and doing so with the cruelty of having to live through suffering and the end of days alone. We emphasize this through the memory of people who were known in the city for their work, not because they are more noteworthy than others.

On November 4, Mario had written a post that rereading it today tastes of defeat, given the sad end. We report it as a sincere and precious Christmas wish from you.

“When we had the suspicion that there could be a possibility of contagion, we chose to close our jewelry to protect our collaborators, but above all to protect our customers! Unfortunately, despite our strict measures, something must have escaped and yesterday the tampons tested positive! Before opening we will take care of the total sanitation of the premises, the complete healing of our staff but above all we will try to make you live this Christmas by giving you the usual opportunities to live it with joy and above all with the true values ​​of love, friendship and love! We are waiting for you at the reopening! “.
