The Sopranos was one of my all-time favorite television shows, and one of the biggest shockers happened when Vito turned out to be gay. While on the lamb, Vito found volunteer fireman and short-order cook "Johnny Cakes", and the two had a short-lived romance.

Costelloe, 47, was a real-life former New York City firefighter - and was appearing in an off-Broadway comedy (Gang of Seven) at the time of his death.
