Dom and Sal Badali with their late mom Lena
The Badali family is featured in the current Neighbours of Leaside and Bennington Heights magazine. The Badalis celebrated the 75th anniversary of their fruit store on Bayview Ave. in 2013. Among the stories told in this Bulldog flashback is that of the Mass among the Melons, which occurred before St. Anselm’s Parish had a church in which to pray.
