The agent, Jennifer de Chiara, confirmed the news to USA Today, adding, Aiello was married to his wife, Sandy Cohen, for over 60 years, and is survived by his children Rick, Jaime and Stacy, and his nephew, sports broadcaster Michael Kay. Cohen and Aiello’s son, stunt performer Danny Aiello III, died of pancreatic cancer in 2010, at age 53.
Aiello began his acting career in the 1970s, and his second-ever film role was playing gangster Tony Rosato in The Godfather Part II. Aiello was best known for his role as the Bed-Stuy pizzeria owner Sal in Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing, a role that earned him a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination in 1990. He also played Cher’s charmingly befuddled fiancé in the 1987 film Moonstruck.
