John took our wedding pictures on Feb. 19th, 1955 so we were one of his first customers for our pictures and album which is still in tact. We will be married 65years on Feb. 19, 2020. John lived a very interesting life and lived life to the fullest. Rest In Peace, John.

Mr. Rygiel was the very first person to tell me that Drugs were bad and that it would ruin my life...He told all of us that and we were so very blessed to have had such a profound influence in our young lives back in the 70's...
I earned many pins and learned things I took through out my entire life. Thank you for a job well done Sir and may you rest in peace!
My love and Prayers to all his family!

As a girl growing up in Wyoming Valley, I have fond memories of John and his elegant wife, Joanne. His children were good friends of mine, and I remember fun, love and laughter in their home. John took my high school graduation photos! Last year I had the immense privilege of visiting him (along with Joanne and Trisha) in his assisted living home. He was as bright and funny as always, and we had a wonderful time. May he Rest In Peace, and may his dear family be comforted in this time of sorrow.
