A downtown Auburn restaurant announced Monday that it will close after a little more than five years in business.

Gusto Italiano at 105 Genesee St. will close on Nov. 20, owners Dario and Lucia D'Angelo on Facebook.聽

The D'Angelos said they decided to close the restaurant so they could spend more time with their children. The COVID-19 pandemic in particular, and the staffing and supply shortages that came with it, has been "emotionally and physically draining" for them. Though business remained steady as it shifted from dining in to takeout, the work took its toll over the past 20 months.

"Being at the restaurant from morning to late night wasn鈥檛 fair to (our children) nor to us," they said. "Our children are our priority and for that reason alone we knew we needed to make a change."

The D'Angelos, who opened Gusto Italiano in October 2016, also expressed gratitude for their customers in their post. The family came to Auburn from Italy two years prior 鈥� Dario's uncle is Angelo's Pizza founder Angelo D'Angelo 鈥� so running the restaurant helped them improve their English skills and introduced them to American food customs, they said.聽

"Italians desire to linger over meals, Americans prefer to enjoy a good meal in a short amount of time. Pizza is Italian, but Americans enjoy pairing it with chicken wings. We learned that peas on pizza isn鈥檛 common in America, but chicken riggies is expected on an Italian menu," they said. "So much learning, so many laughs!"

Downtown Auburn restaurant redecorates, refocuses as it turns 2

AUBURN 鈥� Downtown restaurant Gusto Italiano is celebrating its second birthday with some new decor.

The D'Angelos thanked the Auburn community as well. They participated in many local events and catered many celebrations, and the family looks forward to continuing to be part of that community.

"We part with all of our senses filled: the sight of happy people in the dining room, the sound of laughter, the feeling of warmth your personalities brought and the comforting smells wafting from the kitchen," they said. "We look forward to new opportunities within the community. We don't look at this as a goodbye, but more as an opportunity to get to know all of you more intimately within the community. You have become our friends. For this we are grateful. 'Chi trova un amico, trova uni tesoro.' In English, 'He who finds a friend, finds a treasure.' When the doors of Gusto鈥檚 close you will continue to be in our heart. For now, come in and enjoy!"

A diesel engine business that started decades ago in an Auburn garage and grew to include 330 people in five states is now part of a national company.

Jasper Holdings Inc. recently acquired D&W Diesel, a remanufacturer and distributor of diesel engine components that began in a rented one-bay garage in 1976 by Doug Wayne. Three years later his brother Dave joined him, and the siblings grew the business into a multi-state operation that employs 330 people.

Indiana-based Jasper, which has more than 2,300 employees in 50 locations around the country, intends to keep D&W an independently operating business. Greg Wrona, a 13-year D&W employee who most recently was serving as vice president, is now president of the D&W subsidiary. In addition, the Wayne brothers will continue to serve in leadership roles through the transition.

Wrona told 新加坡多多开奖记录 on Friday that the Waynes were looking to take a less active role in the business by finding a buyer who would keep D&W going and retain its workforce and facilities. The company's headquarters on Clark Street Road in Aurelius employs about 220 people, with the rest of its workforce spread among locations in Rochester, Albany, Buffalo in New York state, and in Worcester, Massachusetts; Cliffwood, New Jersey; and the major cities of Cleveland, Philadelphia and Denver.

"(The Waynes) felt this was the most responsible thing to do to ensure D&W's continuation," Wrona said, noting that Jasper has "the resources that can help us grow."

He also noted that for staff, an added bonus of becoming part of Jasper is an employee stock ownership plan that can provide additional retirement funds.

In addition to its own diesel engine products and services, Jasper's business lines include gas engines, transmissions, differentials, rear axle assemblies, air and fuel components, marine engines, sterndrives, performance engines, and electric motors.

鈥淲e are honored to add D&W to our Jasper Holdings, Inc. brands as they are well respected throughout the industry,鈥� Jasper Holdings Inc. CEO Doug Bawel said in a press release. 鈥淒oug Wayne and Dave Wayne will continue to be involved, which is great.鈥�

鈥淲e have known the Waynes for many years as a supplier and innovator in the industry,鈥� said Jasper President Zach Bawel.聽 鈥淭o have them and their Associates join our Jasper Holdings, Inc. family of companies is great for their Associates, and great for us."

Auburn Community Hospital has named an orthopaedic surgeon as its newest chief medical officer.

The hospital announced that Dr. Michael G. Wilson, a surgeon with Auburn Orthopaedic Specialists, is taking over the post vacated by Dr. Paul Fu, who has taken a position at a medical facility outside of Boston. Wilson has been on the ACH staff since May 2020, and has served as deputy chief medical officer. His surgical work focuses on general orthopedics with emphasis on traumatic injuries and foot and ankle problems.

"We are very grateful for Dr. Fu鈥檚 many accomplishments during his tenure at ACH and wish him and his young family well as they embark on a new chapter in their lives. We are pleased that Dr. Wilson has been working closely with Dr. Fu, and as such, he will be able to hit the ground running," said Scott Berlucchi, hospital president and CEO, in a press release. "Dr. Wilson not only has excellent clinical skills as an orthopaedic surgeon, but has excellent management experience."

Chief medical officers oversee a hospital's medical operations, ensuring all facets of medical care are integrated and focused on goals and processes that include quality, safety, credentialing, practice evaluation, mediation between administration and staff, clinic operation efficiency, and medical staff recruiting and development.

A native of California, Wilson completed his medical and residence training at the University of Southern California/Los Angeles County Medical Center. He became a fellow in adult orthopaedic reconstruction at Brigham and Women鈥檚 Hospital and Boston Children鈥檚 Hospital. He then served as chief of orthopaedic surgery at West Roxbury Veteran鈥檚 Hospital and the Faulkner Hospital in Boston. He also was an assistant professor of orthopedic surgery at Harvard University and founded the Harvard Fellowship in Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Surgery in 1995.

Before coming to Auburn, Wilson worked at Cayuga Medical Center in Ithaca, where for eight years he was chair of that hospital's surgery governance committee.

New York state will close six of its correctional facilities early next year, citing a continued drop in the incarcerated population.

The state Department of Corrections and Community Supervision announced closure plans on Monday morning. Neither of the state prisons operating in Cayuga County are on the closure list, but a drug treatment facility in Seneca County is among the six that will officially close on March 10.

Ogdensburg Correctional Facility, Moriah Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility, Willard Drug Treatment Campus, Southport Correctional Facility, Downstate Correctional Facility and Rochester Correctional Facility were selected for closure after what DOCCS described as a comprehensive analysis of all 50 facilities it operates.

The agency said layoffs are not expected, as facilities were closed in areas that are near others that will be have opportunities for existing staff. The downsizing of facilities is expected to save $142 million.

The closure announcement comes almost two weeks after Gov. Kathy Hochul hinted in public comments that she would be supportive of shutting down some prisons, but she also noted that impact on communities where prisons are often major employers must be weighed. This year's state budget included language that authorized closures.

Hochul eyes NY prison closures through 'scaling-down initiative'

• Robert Harding

DOCCS said the total incarcerated population within its facilities is down to 31,469, a decrease of 12,700 since the beginning of 2020. It's the lowest total population since 1984, and it's down more than 56% since the peak population of 72,773 in 1999.

"DOCCS carefully reviewed the operations at its 50 correctional facilities for possible closure," the agency said. "This review was based on a variety of factors, including physical infrastructure, program offerings, facility security level, specialized medical and mental health services, proximity of other facilities in the area to minimize the impact to staff, potential re-use options and areas of the state where prior closures have occurred in order to minimize the impact to communities."

DOCCS said it will work bargaining units to facilitate employee transitions to other job opportunities, and will support the state Office of General Services and Empire State Development with efforts to re-use to the closed facilities.

Monday's announcement is the latest round in a series of prison closures that began under Gov. Andrew Cuomo. Both Cayuga Correctional Facility, a medium security prison, and the maximum security Auburn Correctional Facility, have avoided the cuts.

Willard, in Seneca County, is a drug treatment facility that has often housed convicted felons from the Cayuga County area with addiction issues. DOCCS said Willard, with a staff of 329 people, is currently housing 168 people with a capacity for 664. The drug treatment functions at Willard will shift to Lakeview Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility in Chautauqua County.

The union representing corrections officers blasted the decision by DOCCS.

鈥淚f people have been paying attention to the past decade of poor decisions made by our elected leaders in Albany, today鈥檚 news shouldn鈥檛 come as a shock to anyone," said New York State Correctional Officers and Police Benevolent Association President Michael Powers in a press release. "The State鈥檚 progressive polices are costly and need to be funded somehow. Sadly it鈥檚 at the expense of the hard working men and women of NYSCOPBA. The numbers tell the real story; despite closing over two dozen facilities the past 10 years, violent attacks on our members have doubled and yet nothing is being done to address it. Where is the reinvestment in the facilities to make these prisons safer working environments? My heart goes out to all of the individuals whose lives have been severely impacted by this announcement and know that our organization will hold the department accountable every step of the way. At some point, the State needs to realize that these choices are more than just buildings and tax-saving measures, these are life-altering decisions that upend lives and destroy communities.鈥�

Advocates for incarcerated people said they were pleased with the news.

鈥淲e are pleased that these six facilities will soon close. Among these facilities, Southport, a prison dedicated exclusively to solitary confinement for decades, tortured countless souls and ripped apart many families,"聽Jose Saldana, director of the Release Aging People in Prison Campaign. "However, New York鈥檚 prisons still hold roughly two times more incarcerated people today than in the 1970s, at the dawn of our nation鈥檚 mass incarceration era. Therefore, Governor Hochul and the legislature must use their powers to safely release people from prison. The Governor must use her clemency powers frequently, inclusively, and transparently. She can and should end mass incarceration with the stroke of a pen. The legislature must pass the Elder Parole and Fair & Timely Parole bills. Without these measures, and despite these closures, thousands will continue to needlessly languish behind bars. Tens of thousands of Black and Latinx families are counting on New York鈥檚 leaders to bring their loved ones home.鈥�

A longtime Skaneateles restaurant will close, but the legacy of another will live on there.

The owners of Johnny Angel's Heavenly Burgers聽 Monday that they have sold the business to entrepreneur Adam Weitsman, who plans to open a restaurant called Clover's Caf茅 there.聽

The name comes from Weitsman's daughter Clover, and he is opening the caf茅 to succeed what he her favorite restaurant, the Hilltop. The Skaneateles restaurant and adjoining Cedar House Lanes bowling alley are being sold to Syracuse developer Woodbine Hospitality, which plans to open a new bar and restaurant, bowling alley, family game center and hotel rooms there.

The Hilltop will close on Sunday, Nov. 14, after more than 30 years in business, owner Sean Mott said.

In response to the news, Weitsman posted on Facebook that he would hire the restaurant's staff and pay them full wages until he found a breakfast venue of his own where they could work.聽

"The staff is like family and early morning visits there have created some of my best ideas in my life," he said. "It鈥檚 a legendary venue comprised of wonderful people in our little village."

In a later post, Weitsman the caf茅 will be open 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. seven days a week with the "same amazing staff, same food (and) same prices with that special community feel that it has had for years" as the Hilltop. He will donate 100% of his profits to Skaneateles charities, he added, and will make two female staff from Hilltop equity partners, as Clover wanted it to have female ownership.

Johnny Angel's has itself been open for about 25 years. It will close sometime in the next couple weeks, said the Lynn family, which has operated the burger restaurant for about 20 years. It was founded by John A. Angyal, a former Skaneateles town supervisor. He was assisted by Auburn native Phil Romano, founder of restaurant chains Fuddruckers, Romano's Macaroni Grill and more.聽

"We've seen young children play with the trains as preschoolers, then organize team breakfasts as middle schoolers, work their way through high school and college, and for some, we've seen the next generation at the play area and those same former middle schoolers enjoying some peace while they dine," the Lynn family said on Facebook.

"We hope you cherish these memories as much as we do, and make many more at Clover's Caf茅!"

SYRACUSE 鈥� Skaneateles football coach Joe Sindoni has been involved with several championship-winning teams.聽

This year's Lakers, he says, are unlike any other.聽

Rebounding from an uncharacteristically sluggish end to the regular season, Skaneateles has reclaimed Section III's Class C crown. The Lakers defeated General Brown 35-14 on Saturday in the title game at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse.聽

It's the program's third section title in five years. The Lakers also won the Class C division (and eventually the state title) in 2017, then bumped to Class B in 2018 and won again despite stronger competition.聽

With Skaneateles back at its typical football classification, the team again proved why it's Class C's best. The Lakers took a strange path to this point, though; following an ugly win at Bishop Ludden on Oct. 15, Skaneateles figured it had one more regular season tune-up before its sectional push.聽

That didn't happen. The regular season finale against Solvay was called off, leaving the Lakers with a bad taste in their mouth entering sectionals. In postseason play, the team regrouped to pull off a pair of comeback wins against Canastota and Cazenovia to return to the title game, where the Lakers were able to pummel the Lions.聽

"This hasn't followed any pattern of any team I can remember," Sindoni said. "Playing Canastota twice, playing Cazenovia four times in seven months. Those teams had the familiarity with us and physical ability to do some things, and that's why those games were tight.聽

"General Brown didn't have the familiarity with us. I liked the way we played today, and I like how we played against Caz. We showed a lot of moxie, even if we didn't always execute."

Moxie, in the first half, meant capitalizing on limited possessions. General Brown's offensive attack was intent on keeping the Lakers' offense on the sideline.聽

After both teams failed to score on their opening drives, Skaneateles opened the scoring with 3:04 left in the first quarter on James Musso's 34-yard pass up the seam to Cooper Purdy.聽

An 8-minute drive by General Brown ensued, but eventually stalled at Skaneateles' 17. The Lakers' then marched down the field to take a 14-0 lead on Musso's 9-yard dump-off pass to Grayson Brunelle.

Any hope for General Brown likely ended on the team's first drive of the second half. The Lions put the ball on the ground, and the fumble was recovered by Skaneateles' Gerald Morrissey at the General Brown 40. A few plays later, Brunelle was in the end zone on a 9-yard run.聽

Musso tossed his third touchdown of the day later in the third quarter, a 35-yarder to Nate Shattuck that put Skaneateles in front 28-0.聽

While the Lions managed a pair of scores in the fourth quarter, the outcome was never in doubt for Skaneateles.

The lone moment of nerves actually came on what should've been a harmless run by Musso midway through the fourth. The senior quarterback ran out of bounds following a run-pass option, but slammed into a guard rail and injured his nose.

With his nose leaking blood, Musso did not immediately re-enter the game. The Lakers were forced to turn to Brunelle to handle quarterback duties for the remainder of the drive, which he finished off with a 5-yard touchdown run on a direct snap.聽

Musso said after the game that while he might've broken his nose, he'll be "fine by tomorrow." Musso also commended Brunelle, who finished with three touchdowns and was named the game's MVP, for his performance and for commanding the offense in his stead.

"One thing he doesn't get enough credit for is his pass blocking. He's unbelievable in pass protection," Musso said. "Obviously the offensive line is important too, but (Brunelle) is one of the keys to that. And then you see what he can do with the ball in his hands, he does everything."

"Everything" might be what it takes next Saturday, when Skaneateles takes on Chenango Forks in the NYSPHSAA quarterfinals, a team Sindoni calls "the best football program in the state."

That game will mark the third time during Sindoni's tenure at Skaneateles that his team will face Chenango Forks in the state tournament. Most recently was in 2018 when both teams competed in Class B 鈥� the Lakers won that game 27-26 on a last-second touchdown, despite trailing by 12 midway through the fourth quarter.

"They're good year-in and year-out," Sindoni said. "They do what they do on offense, and they do it really well. In my time at Skaneateles, we've had a seven-point loss and a one-point win in the two times we've played them.聽

"We're looking forward to it. If you're playing them in that game, honestly it means you did something good. You want to play against the best, and they are certainly that."
