In Memorium
John Tabaczynski, 1939-2021
Beloved long-time NVPC member and active supporter John Tabaczynski
passed away on the morning of June 25th.
"Tab" led many of our Digital User Groups in recent years and was
always ready to pitch in and assist the club in any way he could,
providing lectures, one-on-one discussions and constructive critiques.
Tab loved meeting with our group of photographers each month, and was himself an
expert photographer.
Above all Tab loved the art of the print, submitting more prints by far
than digital images in our monthly salons.
And his prints were always exquisite in detail, composition and clarity.
It will take time for those who enjoyed his cheerful personality and welcome
smile to reconcile his absence.
Members will be notified by email regarding services.
