You're probably thinking of Gambino soldier John Rizzo.

No, I think John Rizzo's father who Sammy refers to as old man Rizzo was also a Gambino solder.

Was Nicky Rizzo the guy that they killed Frankie Steele for? Maybe killed Rizzo's son?

No, When Sammy says Old Man Rizzo he is talking about John Rizzo. John's Father's Antonio was a member but died in the 1960's and I doubt Sammy knew him. LCN blogspots has a post on him.

Yes, he was a soldier when Sammy was coming up in the Gambinos. Louie Milito was on record with him, and Sammy did an end-run around Rizzo when he refused to propose Milito.

Listening to some of his stuff, sounds like you guys are right. I stand corrected. My assumption was he was too young to be made at the time so he must have been talking about the father, but the year is unclear it appears in some of the stories.

John Sr was Old Man Rizzo...his son, John Jr, is the current captain...anyways, I believe Sammy has a video where he talks of this NICKY Rizzo...he either helped on the Frankie Stillitano hit or they hit Stillitano because of something to do with NICKY Rizzo's son...I think the story is in the book Underboss too...Paul ordered the hit, his body was found in the trunk of a car at the airport...
