Colonie Teen Dies After A Year And A Half Battle

A year and a half after suffering horrible burns on 95% of his body, Niko DiNovo passed away yesterday. Niko was the Colonie teen that was involved with a terrible crash at Blessings Tavern in December of 2016. 

Niko was certainly a fighter and showed an entire community what it meant to be #NikoStrong. 

I was honored to be a part of an event at Colonie High School for Niko and although I didn't know him personally his story touched me deeply. I am not only a resident of Colonie but I'm also a graduate of CCHS and still have many connections to the school. My heart breaks for the DiNovo family as well as all of Niko's friends.
