I was honored to receive the Man of the Year award from the Sons of Italy Vince Lombardi Lodge at their annual Italian-American Heritage Awards dinner. I am so proud of my Italian heritage, which has given me so much and helped make me who I am today. I am joined in this photo by music legend Lou Gramm, who received the Lifetime Achievement Award, and my good friend Rich Funke.
