The delivery man had moved to Staten Island to live with the woman he loved.
Mary thought the best part of her life was just begining until the phone rang. "I thought it was an April Fools' joke," Mary exclusively told Jim Dolan.
His friends blame the restaurant. "They aren't supposed to send them over there...They know it's a dangerous neighborhood," said one person.
Mary thinks the restaurant knew too. "They claim they didn't, they said it was a new deliver," she said.
