Niko was born in Chania Crete, Greece in 1949. He later moved to the United States to be with family and help raise his nieces and nephews. He spent summers traveling back to his home in Greece where he would enjoy his childhood friends and culture.
During his time in the United States, he served his community in Port Washington with dignity and respect. He was a coach and mentor to the Port Washington Thunderers soccer team and his nephews biggest fan at every tennis match.
He was also a faithful parishioner of Archangel Michael Greek Orthodox Church in Sans Point, LI.
Niko is survived by his sisters, Chrysoula, Ekaterini, Maro & and his brother, Andreas.
