A Slice of Us
Here we are, the esteemed Mad Sicilian family. Allow me a moment to make proper introductions. I am a mother of four, filled with immense pride, and fortunate enough to be wedded to an exceptional gentleman. In the foreground, arranged from left to right, we have... myself, Mary, George, Victoria and Theodore. In the back, Kaitlyn and Eleni.
George is our highly skilled chef and creative genius behind the majority of the dishes we offer at The Mad Sicilian. He obtained his culinary degree from Athens, Greece and honed his expertise in various culinary styles across Europe. Those fortunate enough to indulge in his culinary creations truly comprehend his exceptional talent in the culinary realm.
When I was much younger, I relocated to California. It was truly a blessing to have my uncle, Mick Lumetta, who was the original founder of Optical World in the Santa Rosa Plaza, as my mentor. He taught me everything I needed to know about being an optician, and I am grateful for that. Since 1986, I have been working as an optician and I am currently employed at Empire Optometry in Santa Rosa.
Our Adult Children
George and I could not be more proud of the people our children have become. Theo, Victoria, Eleni and Kaitlyn are college graduates and perusing life's adventures while finding their way in this very confusing world.
