What linked me to one non-relation Marilyn F. Ruggieri ( read obituary ) : We both graduated from R-I-J-E-C-T ( now CCRI ) on June 6 , 1977

I did not know this Marilyn F. Ruggieri . But just today I was trying to find the graduating list for June of 1977 for Community College of Rhode Island . At first I was frustrated reviewing the June Archive of the 1977 Providence Journal. I had forgotten that back then the school was called " Rhode Island Junior College " ( snobs pronounced RIJC " R-E-J-E-C-T " ). Finally ,only going by a truncated list ( there is a charge for seeing the full article found in the PROJO archives.= ) I spotted " Ronald Ruggieri " which was just below the name of another Associate of Arts graduate : Marilyn F. Ruggieri . A curious coincidence , I thought : " Let me see if Marilyn is still around today " . So I GOOGLED her full name . The first hit : OBITUARY ! Our paths did cross once. REST IN PEACE Marilyn F. Ruggieri. [ "A graduate of Rhode Island Community College, Marilyn earned her Associate Degree. She belonged to St. Peter's Church in Warwick for many years.
