It is tough to find much info on the Gigantes'
Vincent (1928-2005)
Pasquale (1921-1983)
Ralph (1930-1984)
Mario (1923- )
Louis (1932- ) Only one not in the life.

I have not read the newer Chin book and maybe it would answer a few of my inquiries.
Is it worth the read?

Can anyone answer a few of my questions?

#1. What did Ralph and Pasquale die from?
#2. Who was the first Gigante to get involved in the life, Pasquale? (seeing as he was the oldest) I am always intrigued when a younger brother attains a higher rank.
#3. Is Mario still active at the youthful age of 94? If so, is he still capo rank?
#4. What rank were Pasquale and Ralph?
#5. Why did Chin choose to have no family members in the administration? Worried about nepotism (Unlike the Gotti's and Persico's )
#6. Has anyone ever seen any photos of Ralph and Pasquale?

Thanks to anyone who has some answers.
