Nikolas ‘Niko’ Brian Cinquegrani

Nikolas ‘Niko’ Brian Cinquegrani, 28, Pittston, passed away Thursday, June 4th, 2026, at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, after complications from a motorcycle accident.

Born on January 21, 1998, Niko was the son of Helene Divell Lazarchick and Damian Cinquegrani.

Niko was a graduate of Pittston Area class of 2016, where he excelled at sports. He furthered his education at Wilkes University and played on their football team. Niko then decided to pursue a career as a Lineman, graduating from Southeast Lineman Training Center SLTC, Georgia. He continued to become a Journeyman Lineman and a member of the IBEW Local 1319.

Niko lived more fully in 28 years than many do in a lifetime. He was known for his adventurous spirit, infectious smile, sense of humor, and larger-than-life personality.

Niko was an outdoorsman who treasured the countless hours spent hunting and fishing with his family and friends. He also loved his Harley and enjoyed the thrill of an open road on a beautiful day. His Sundays were spent watching his favorite football team, the Philadelphia Eagles.

Niko had a love for music and was known for his incredible singing voice. Whether he was singing along to his favorite songs in the truck, around family and friends, or simply for the joy of it, his voice had a way of bringing smiles to those around him.

Niko took immense pride in his work. He loved his career and the brotherhood that came with it. Being a journeyman lineman wasn’t just what he did—it was part of who he was. After long days of hard work, he found happiness in life’s simple comforts. One of his favorite ways to unwind was settling in to watch a good movie with a big bowl of popcorn.

Above all else, Niko’s greatest pride and joy was being a ‘girl dad’ to his daughter, Elliana. She was the light of his life and the bond they shared was truly special. Nothing brought him more happiness than spending time with her, making her laugh, teaching her new things, and creating memories. His legacy will forever live on through her as a reflection of the love, strength, and joy he brought into this world.

He also shared a beautiful life with his longtime girlfriend, Marissa, the mother of his beloved daughter.

While our hearts are broken by his sudden loss, we find comfort in remembering a life lived fully, a spirit that embraced every adventure, and a man whose love for his family and friends knew no bounds.

Niko is proceeded in death by his grandmother, Ellen Magalski of Duryea and uncle, Justin Lazarchick of New Jersey.

Niko is survived by his mother, Helene Lazarchick and her husband Jonathan of Laflin, and father, Damian Cinquegrani and Marilyn Kline of Duryea, his daughter, Elliana Cinquegrani and Marissa Morreale of Pittston, his sisters, Abbigail Cinquegrani and Luxington Lazarchik of Laflin, his grandmother, Ann Marie Gross of Wyoming, his grandfather, Brian Cinquegrani of Florida, and Harry and Joann Lazarchick of New Jersey, as well as numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.
