"Mob Wives" stars flocked to pay tribute to their late friend and co-star Angela "Big Ang" Raiola. People who paid respects did not include Brittany Fogarty and Karen Gravano - both ladies banned from the memorial service.
When it was reported that "Big Ang" passed away after battling stage 4 cancer, friends and family like Teresa Giudice went to social media to pay their respects. That also included "Mob Wives" stars Renee Graziano, Carla Facciolo, and Drita D'Avanzo when they took to Instagram on Saturday to remember the good times with "Big Ang".
Graziano posted a photo on Instagram that showed a group gathering together. "If #bigang taught me anything it was to be thankful for my life long girlfriends," was Graziano's caption. The group appeared to be happy with the each other's companies while remembering their fondest memories with "Big Ang".
Though the ladies gathered together, there were others that were not invited. "Mob Wives" stars Brittany Fogarty and Karen Gravano were reportedly banned from "Big Ang's" memorial services because both of their fathers snitched on other fellow mobsters back in the 1990's. Fogarty's mother, Andrea Giovino, was also not invited to the ceremonies.
Karen Gravano's crime boss dad, Sammy "The Bull" Gravano, reportedly assisted the FBI in bringing down John Gotti while John Fogarty, Brittany's father, has been under witness protection for snitching on other mafia big names.
After "Big Ang's" battle with brain and lung cancer at the age of 55, she is reported to be buried in Staten Island. It was said that her estranged husband, Neil Murphy, was by her deathbed during her last few moments.
