Salvatore "Sammy" Grigio (1947-) was a DiMeo crime family associate in Jimmy Altieri's crew.

Biography[]

Salvatore Grigio was born in 1947 in Newark, New Jersey to a family of Italian descent, and he became an associate of the DiMeo crime family. Grigio ran a card game for Jimmy Altieri's crew, and, in 1999, he was violently beaten up by Mikey Palmice for not paying protection to anyone in the neighborhood. Palmice had been sent by Junior Soprano, as Junior expected more money to be funneled to him, allowing less to trickle down to his capos. This incident scared off members of Grigio's card game, and damaged Altieri and Grigio's reputation for protecting their customers.
