Mr. Speaker. I rise in honor of Fortune "Tino" Bosco. of Tampa. Florida. who lost his battle with cancer last month. Fortune described himself to many as "just a poor Italian immigrant." but to all who knew him. he was so much morea grand story teller. a civil rights advocate. a political powerhouse. a bocce ball enthusiast and a dedicated family man. Born in Lanciano. Italy. Fortune eamed a degree in law and economics from the University of Rome. and went on to serve in the Italian National Police and at Interpol. the Paris based international police agency. Also a professional soccer player. in the 1950s.
