LORENZAGO DI CADORE. In a small community such as Lorenzago, we all know each other. The town is astonished, dismayed: Angelo Mainardi was the trusted shoemaker of many people. Eighty-two years, he had spent a long time in Germany, working as an ice cream maker. On his return to Lorenzago he had started to repair shoes, a job that he was passionate about and which he continued even as a retiree, despite some health problems.
