The Togni family during a morning practice session.
Flavio invited Shannon and I down to his railroad car for a spaghetti dinner one evening.
He and his wife were very gracious.

I got to meet Flavio in Houston, Texas.
We got invited back stage and like you said Buckles he was a very gracious person.
And no one from Ringling said get the hell out of here.
There railroad car was a first for me with the doors in the middle of the car and not at the ends like all the rest.
I gave him a box full of circus goodies for his collection.
I heard when they left here for Italy they had a container full circus stuff.
Flavio still to this day is a true super star of the circus and a class act.
Another great memory of a friend that I will never forget.
Harry in Texas
