Funeral of Barganews weatherman Jack Nannini





As we reported earlier this week following a fall at his home this week Barga Vecchia has just lost one of its characters; Rino Nanani was buried this afternoon. Known to all in the city by his nickname "Lombo" and by the readers of barganews as "Jack Nannini", 85 year old Rino is no longer with us. In a changing world where nothing is the same for very long, he was a constant presence in the streets of Barga Vecchia. He and his humour will be missed.

It's a few months now since I was in Barga and I know when I return I will still expect to see Jack to be sitting somewhere enjoying a glass.
Consider my glass raised in his honour.
