Stanley Gryziec Obituary
Stanley Carl Gryziec Jr. was born in Nanticoke on Oct. 14, 1949, to Stanley and Clara Gryziec. He graduated in 1967 from the Northwest Area High School, Shickshinny, and received his bachelor of science in chemical engineering from Drexel University, Philadelphia.
Stan applied his chemical engineering education as a batch and furnace engineer for Owens-Illinois in Pittston and Windsor, Colo., with a nearly 27-year career with Techneglas Inc., Pittston, in between. He had been with Owens-Illinois in Windsor since 2005.
While in Pennsylvania, Stanley enjoyed gardening and farming. After moving to Colorado, he was struck by the beauty of the Rocky Mountains and visited many of the state parks and other scenic landmarks in the region.
Stanley was a loving and dedicated husband and father. He was a very honest, hardworking and caring man. Stan's kindness, quick wit and sense of humor will be greatly missed by family and friends.
He is survived by his wife, Karen; son, Joshua Gryziec, Boulder, Colo.; daughter, Angela Gryziec, New Albany; sister and brother-in-law, Pearl and Rodney Race, Noxen; sister and brother-in-law, Kathryn and William Johnson, Kingston; nephews and nieces, Dr. Jonathan Johnson, Rehoboth Beach, Del.; Chad Antolik, Lake Pinecrest, Pa.; Catherine Stefanowicz, Sweet Valley, and Rhonda Darko, Noxen.
Stan's family sends warm and heartfelt thanks to the oncology nurses and doctors at Poudre Valley Hospital who took such good care of him during his illness.
Donations in Stan's memory can be made to PVH/MCR Foundation – Cancer Center, 2315 E. Harmony Road, No. 200, Fort Collins, CO 80528.
Plans are being made for interment and a memorial service to be held at the Dodson Cemetery in Southdale, Pa.
