The Metropolitan Mayor of Reggio Calabria Joseph Falcomata expressed feelings of “deep condolences for the passing of Peter Mafricialready appreciated director of the INPS office in Reggio Calabria, an attentive professional, always at the service of the Reggio community, endowed with extraordinary humanity and passion for culture and sport”.
“His commitment – the mayor stated – and his dedication were an example for many, also because of his service activities in the cultural and social fields with the city’s service clubs. His passing leaves a great void also in the sports world and in basketball in particular”.
“Pietro Mafrici, together with his family, have always been among the most faithful and passionate supporters of Viola. His attachment to the black and orange colors was exemplary, both in the glorious seasons of the great Viola, but also in less fortunate sporting periods. A passion also transmitted to his son, Giovanni, a brilliant journalist specialized in basketball and now a reference speaker for Reggio basketball. To his entire family, his wife, his children and his grandchildren, – concludes Falcomatà – my closeness and that of the entire metropolitan administration”.
