Historic Photo Vault

We’d like to personally thank the Dalzell family for their unselfish contribution of their family history, stories, photos, and conversation about Amedeo Obici. Jolyne Dalzell, Amedeo’s niece, and her daughter Elizabeth along with husband Kenneth spent hours of their time telling us stories, sharing photos, recipes, and other interesting nugget’s about “Uncle Amedeo”. We are forever grateful.

These photos were shared with Amedeo’s Ristorante by Jolyne Dalzell, Elizabeth Dalzell and Kenneth Kramer, and are intended to be used only in association with Amedeo’s Ristorante.
