An old friend of Vito Corleone and owner of Nazorine's patisserie.
[edit] Biography
Nazorine ran a small bakery in Little Italy during the 30s and 40s, one time having to call on his friend Don Corleone for assiastance when the owner of furniture owed to Nazorine and his finacee and claimed bankrupcy, without returning Nazorine's deposit. As with most matters, this was swiftly dealt with by Don Corleone.
During the time of the war, Nazorine took on a Sicilian prisoner of war, Enzo Aguello, to help out in the shop. However, the young man fell deeply in love with with Nazorine's daughter Katarina, who was heartbroken when Enzo was to be sent home. Fearing that the two might elope, Nazorine called upon his old friend Don Vito Corleone to keep Enzo in the country. The Don did so, and Nazorine showed his gratitude by baking an enormous cake for Connie Corleone's wedding.
After Nazorine died, Enzo took over his bakery and continued to prepare cakes and delicacies for the Corleone Family on special occasions.
