Pastore, Sasala

My father was Generoso "Rosie" Pastore of Rosie's Barber Shop off State St in Sharon, Pa. He passed in 1964. Immigrated to America from Italy in June of 1923. He married my mother, Pauline Sasala and they lived at 505 Thornton Ave. My mother worked at the Sharon Country Club and Shenango Inn as a waitress for many years.
