The Society dedicates its website to Romeo Sabatini, who worked tirelessly for over 10 years developing and maintaining our original site; to Ryan A. Turner who, in honor of his grandmother Rosemarie Antonelli Turner (whose father Frank emigrated from Abruzzo), gifted the Society with funds to develop a new website in 2015; and to Brian Needles and Lori Harvey, with Chadick+Kimball, who worked with us in 2021 to refresh and modernize the website. The Society is grateful for Romeo, Brian & Lori’s time, and for Ryan’s generosity, which bridge the past with the future for the benefit of all AMHS members and friends.
