2007-02-23 |
Joseph Edward Gallo Jr., who broke from his winemaking family to make cheese and then waged a high-profile spat with his famous brothers over use of the Gallo name, has died. He was 87. Gallo died Feb. 17 at his home in Livingston of a longtime illness, Donna Bradley, a spokeswoman for Joseph Farms, said Thursday. Joseph Gallo was born Sept. 11, 1919, in Antioch, the youngest brother in a family of winemakers. His two older brothers, Ernest and Julio Gallo, would later start E&J Gallo Winery. |
