But exactly what is The Family Debt?

The Family Debt is the Unsolved Murder And Untold Story of Giacomo “Jack” Bianco. This is a true story about my father… yes… “my daddy … my best friend”.

It has been my heart’s desire to tell this story for quite some time. It’s actually a 40 year silent cold case… at least until now…

I’m sure it’s going to be captivating and you’ll find yourself wondering…. who killed Jack Bianco?

You see..

Jack Bianco’s life had always been a combination of family and business. Jack learned to always put his family first; no matter what price he had to pay. Had he known the consequences of his decisions would he have done things differently or stayed the course?

After 40 Years Of Unanswered Questions, It’s Time To Repay A Family Debt…

familydebt1

He was a man that lived his life with passion for his family, a man that worked hard at everything he did. His unselfish nature exposed year after year, experience after experience. Jack was undoubtedly a family man who never let his family down… no matter the cost.

Never asking questions, he simply chose to rise to the occasion time after time to persevere the integrity of his family and to protect his personal and business interests. He didn’t make excuses… he simply delivered what was required when it was required.

Then suddenly, one day the giving stopped… abruptly and unexpectedly… the core of the family was taken forever…. his life extinguished. Over time, more questions surfaced, but unfortunately no answers, no explanations…Did he know how steep the price would be to protect his family?

Distant memories of the past coupled with the lingering question “Why was Daddy killed?”

Did anyone care? A Daughter did… As for the detectives and investigators…they  were simply told to “shelf the investigation”, this, only three days after this horrible murder… a file never to be opened again.

Why? Who did this? Was there a conspiracy? Did a robbery go bad? Was it an act of revenge from a gang member? Was there a contract, a preplanned hit? No one was talking…dead silence.

giacomoblend Almost 40 years later the same   questions still pierce the silence once filled by a father’s voice.

Now for the first time, a family’s thoughts finally revealed and shared with you. As you read Jack Bianco’s story…the ups, the downs… the trails and tribulations, you decide…

I hope you enjoy my father’s life story.

Sincerely,
Teresa Bianco

    Dear Teresa,
    I’m also looking forward to reading this book. I loved my Uncle Jack and he was like a father to both of us when I lived with you guys in between my 1st through 6th grades at St. Joe’s. We were like brother and sister to him and he never played favorites. He was truly the best uncle I ever had. Joey

    Teresa,
    Reading the excerpt and comments takes me back. I was born/raised in Gary. I would have to check my Lew Wallace High yearbook to be certain, but I recall going to school with a Tony Penzato? I certainly am familiar with the Rizzo’s of Glen Park (2 Rizzo families lived on my block), as well as St. Joseph School. I attended there. At Wallace I had a guidance counselor/teacher named Sam Bianco whom I highly respected. Would he be a relative of yours?

    I can certainly relate to your ordeal. My uncle, Gary Police Lt. George Yaros, was murdered during the commission of a robbery at the the Glen Park Branch of the Gary National Bank; strangely also in August, but in the year 1981.

    Your readers may also be interested in a web site I have, relating to all things Gary, IN. It is titled Dave’s Den. The Gary page may be accessed at http://GDYNets.WebNG.com/gary.htm

    Looking forward to reading your work!

    Great start for a wonderful man. I was only 2 when my grandfather was murdered but the stories I heard about him were great. Mom always told me that my grandfather was a kind, loving and honorable man. He made everyone feel welcome. How does a man as remarkable as he fall prey to something like this? He will always be loved and missed by the lives he touched. I wish I could have had the opportunity as others to have been blessed to have known him.

    Love ya Aunt Tre…Send me a signed copy.

    WOW! Loved the music and graphics on your site and am looking forward to reading this book. Really grabbed my interest. On a more sober note, this sounds like a real tragedy, and I’m so sorry it took so long to learn the truth about your father’s death.
