Gina and John Bonelli with daughter Ava
Ava Maria Bonelli, born September 13
San Francisco — The Gateway Global family just got a little bigger! In what was a punctual arrival—on her actual due date, making her a natural for the chauffeured transportation industry--Ava Marie Bonelli made her debut on September 13, weighing in at a healthy 7 pounds, 12 ounces and almost 20 inches in length. Ava is the daughter of Gina Amato-Bonelli (Gateway’s administrator of finance and new projects) and her husband John, granddaughter of President Sam Amato, and niece of Joel Amato, director of affiliate operations. Mom, dad, and baby are all happy, healthy, and adjusting well to their new routine—if the mountains of diapers and around-the-clock feedings are any indication. Congratulations to the Bonelli and Amato families!
