I got a quick question that my friend and I were discussing the other day, couldn't figure it out:

Have we ever found out how Tony's father (Johnny Boy) died?

I don't think we have, we know that he's dead because they always mention him, but I don't remember that we've ever found out how he died or what happened to him. If we haven't found out yet it seems like something that Chase might bring up if Tony starts worrying about his own fate.

Anyone out there remember either way? Thanks.

I don't remember them discussing it much in detail on the show, but the HBO.com Sopranos web site says Johnny Boy died of lung cancer. I think it may have come up back when Uncle Junior was worrying about his own cancer and he mentioned everyone that he knew that died from cancer.

Yeah, I think it was something "natural".

Not Mob related.
