Francesco "Franco" Columbu
8/7/1941 - 8/30/2019
Today was Franco's funeral so I am publishing this post in his memory to honor something he loved very much which was his friendship with Arnold.
Loyalty is a very important aspect of friendship. This glimpse into Arnold and Franco’s friendship of over 50 years is sweet. And to those of us who are avid bodybuilding fans, trained at Gold’s Venice and hung around in the streets of Venice Beach and the Venice Beach boardwalk, this video has a more significant meaning. As for me, having proudly done legal work for The Oak along with Patrick Knapp Schwarzenegger, and having been close friends with the late Joe Gold, this video warms my heart just a little extra.
