Mike Niro was a good man and a great person. Whenever we saw Mikey at family events he was always one you wanted to talk to and engage. Smart, friendly, and caring, he will be missed and remembered with love, respect, and 'La Famiglia' pride by his brother's Dominick, Raymond, and his sister, Maria,(Mary), many family members, and friends. Rest in peace Mike.
