ROME, Italy -- A family spokesman says James Gandolfini’s body may be repatriated as soon as Monday.
Michael
Kobold told reporters Sunday that the “provisional plan” is to depart
Rome on Monday afternoon for the United States, several days earlier
than anticipated. He did not specify which U.S. airport.
Kobold
thanked Italian and U.S. authorities, including U.S. Secretary of State
John Kerry, his predecessor Hilary Clinton and former President Bill
Clinton for helping with arrangements.
Gandolfini,
51, died Wednesday in Rome. Kobold has said an autopsy revealed the
cause was a heart attack. Authorities have not released the report.
The
“Sopranos” star had been en route to Sicily for an appearance at the
Taormina Film Festival, which paid tribute to him Saturday.
