Giuseppe Di Stefano dead at 86 -- a stamp?
Giuseppe Di Stefano passed away at age 86 at his home near Milan yesterday.
The world has lost one of the greatest tenors of all time. His 50s and 60s recordings of E' la solita storia and Core 'Ngrato are the best renditions I have ever heard. I have written to Poste Italiane suggesting a commemorative stamp because I believe Di Stefano truly deserves one. Anyone wishing to make similar recommendations can forward them to the Director, Strategic Planning at . -- Tony Vella, Ottawa, Canada

Blair I'm not at all certain that Italy holds fast to that "rule". If memory serves, the Mother Teresa stamp in the 90s was issued less than a year after her passing. -- Tony Vella, Ottawa, Canada

Is she not being fast tracked in the canonization process? Blair
