Delmo Rotelli. He never changes. Maybe a little deafer and blinder, although Franco claims he can see and hear the things he wants to. Chances are there isn't much he wants to see and/or hear anymore. He's approaching 90, still drinks, smokes, eats sweets and sits in the sun -- although I've only seen him do these things in great moderation. My father-in-law says he doesn't age because he's never had to work a day in his life. I think maybe he's made a pact with the devil. There is something vaguely sinister about him.

Meri and Piero Rotelli (Franco's mother and younger brother).
