Sterling Heights library volunteer finds photo, leads to emotional reunion for Michigan family

A decades-old wedding photograph tucked inside a donated book has made its way back to the family it belongs to, thanks to the sharp eyes of a library volunteer and the power of social media.

The Sterling Heights Public Library announced that a black-and-white wedding photo labeled “Frank and Josephine Ruggirello, Nana-Nono” was found inside a book donated to its Used, But Sterling bookstore. Staff members turned to Facebook in an effort to locate the family, and it worked.

A social media connection helps identify the photo’s origins

Sarah Ruggirello, the granddaughter of the couple in the photograph, discovered the post after a childhood friend tagged her unexpectedly.

“One of my childhood friends who I haven’t spoken to in years tagged me in this post, and so I read the post from the Sterling Heights Public Library,” Ruggirello told WXYZ-TV. “And she recognized my last name in it and said, ‘Hey, are these some family members of yours?’”

After taking a closer look, Ruggirello confirmed that the photo was taken on her grandparents’ wedding day — September 26, 1953, in Detroit.

A sentimental rediscovery of family history

Frank Ruggirello passed away in 2020, followed by Josephine in 2023. The couple had been married for 67 years.

The recovered photograph, now framed and cherished, holds particular significance for the family.

“My dad and I have never seen this exact photo before. We didn’t know this exact photo existed,” Sarah Ruggirello said. “I think now I’m going to frame it and display it somewhere in my house just because this was such a cool story and such a cool thing that happened.”

The Sterling Heights Public Library has not said how the book containing the photo ended up in their donation pile, but the reunion has touched hearts across the community and served as a poignant reminder of the unexpected stories hidden in even the smallest corners of everyday life.
