John R. Salvagno

73, of Cranston, RI, passed away peacefully on April 23, 2025.

A true jack of all trades, John had a passion for working on cars and took great pride in fixing and building just about anything. He was always ready with a tool in hand and a willingness to help. Above all, he was a protector—steadfast, dependable, and deeply devoted to those he loved.

One of John’s greatest legacies is the strength he instilled in his daughters. He taught them to be strong, independent women, leading by example with his resilience, integrity, and unwavering love.

John is survived by his loving wife, Annette Salvagno; his two daughters, Stacey Salvagno and Stephanie Rihani; his cherished granddaughters, Nevaeh and Leila Rihani; and his sister Linda DiStefano. His presence, strength, and sense of humor will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
