He was born in 1911, the son of Giovanni and Sylvia Bruno. He attended St. Paul's Catholic School, and later married his wife, Louise in 1932.

Angelo was well-respected in the community. He was known to give out money to help the poor and underprivileged. He is survived by his wife Louise, two sons, Michael and John, four granddaughters, and three great-grandchildren. A memorial service will be held at St. Paul's Catholic Church on April 5th. Angelo’s life of crime left a lasting mark on the city of Philadelphia. He will be remembered for his contributions to the underworld and for his acts of kindness. He will be deeply missed by all those who knew him. May he rest in peace.
