I know he was only loosely involved in some of these but where were the 19 victims in these hits?

According to Gravano's book the biker he had a beef with, who's name was JoJo btw, escaped a hit attempt because Louie Milito had the wrong shells in the shotgun. Milito did kill a guy who was with the biker but who had nothing to do with the beef.

In the end Gravano gave Jojo a pass after he stayed away from NY for a long time and asked Paruta's kids to intercede on his behalf..

What are Joe Paruta's kids up to these days? Since their father whacked Robert DiBernardo would his kids think of whacking Paruts'a for revenge?
