- "Shall I look for you in the obituaries? Pay!"
"I'll murder ya!" - ―Aldo Trapani and Norm Felichelli[src]
Norman "Norm" Felichelli was the owner of Grand News, the smallest business in New York City and worked as a driver for the Stracci crime family until he changed allegiances.
Biography[]
A small time businessman who became known for owning the smallest business in New York, a newsstand called "Grand News", he was seen as an easy target by the Stracci family when they sought to make moves on Little Italy although he would eventually become a respected car driver for them, driving Don William Francis Stracci and his sons to meetings and such. Sometimes he would even drive around Leon Grossi and it is possible he was the guy who drove him to Scotty's Biscotti where Leon would ultimately meet his end.
His stand was a gold mine for any mob family since he practically owned the media and mobsters needed him to write positive stuff about them, but the Corleones gained the most from him, since his stand was also located near the Corleone-owned Grand Apartments. Aldo Trapani took out the Stracci associates guarding the newsstand and asked Norm to start paying protection money to the Corleones instead, nicely.
After the Corleones went extinct, Norm changed his allegiances to the DeVazzi family.
