    Meyer Lansky retired in Miami Beach. I grew up in Miami Beach. Meyer used to come in to my mother's place of business, and he was always a gentleman. In fact he always brought my mom a gift at Christmas, Easter and so on. My mom said that he was a very kind man.

      @@dr.barrycohn5461 Luciano was part of the mob not separate. he was under Joe Masseria then sided with Sal Maranzano. After when the territories were divided and the five families were created he was head of what would later be the Genovese family. Lansky AFAIR he was part of the Jewish Mob, he got his start in street corner craps games hustling and met up with Bugsy Siegel. he operated with Lucky Luciano but was a associate that got kicked up to Lucky.

      ".....he didn't deserve..." Really, although he with his pals surely destroyed many many families during their "glory" days in 30-50's. Don't forget how they made their money (loan-sharking, prostitution, black mail, bootlegging, distortion, robbing, murders for money....) ! He spent only 3 months in jail all together. Spent most of his time as a career criminal, came back to US late in his life, and only because he was sick. And you feel bad for him!

    My Grandfather grew up on the Lower East Side. He used to run Bathtub Gin for the Purple Gang out of Detroit. He later got out of that business because the Madame liked my Grandfather. He ended up becoming a Cab Driver and his best friend was Chief of the Manhattan Mounted Police A. Hoffman. I figure that my Grandfather would have made friends with the Mob Boys. My Uncle's Friend had a Job Search/Recruiting Company on Park Avenue that he inherited from his Dad and he built it up. They're Jewish.

    I believe he lost most of his green in Cuba. They say the less you have to hide, the more graceful you are with everybody, and I think Meyer Lansky accepted his fate and dealt with it until his last day. The big guys had nothing to fear from him, so they let him quietly live out his final days.
