Stanley F. Niziol, Jr., age 79, passed away peacefully in his home on Thursday, March 12, 2026. Born March 4, 1947, he was the son of the late Stanley F. Niziol and Cecelia B. Niziol (Gyms).

    Stanley's father died nine months after my mother. His dad and my mother were very close. She was in their wedding. We visited their house often. Stanley took movies and used a new Polaroid camera to take photos. Stanley and Joann too, would drive us to Atlantic City, staying awake all night long! My most recent memory of Stanley was seeing him on the bus, going into Pittsburgh, to work. He was a gentle, kind and very intelligent cousin!
