“Remembering Louie Rychlik,” a memorial for Rychlik, a longtime volunteer and business owner, is set for 4-6 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 4, at the Dungeness Schoolhouse, 2781 Towne Road.

The memorial includes some of his favorite music, stories about Rychlik’s life, a slideshow and opportunity to pay respects.

The board of the Sequim Museum wanted to honor Rychlik in the building where he began school in 1947 and worked to restore, said Judy Reandeau Stipe, volunteer executive director for the museum.

Owner of Louie’s Well Drilling of Port Angeles, Rychlik was known in the community for his philanthropic and volunteer endeavors throughout the community, with Sequim’s Museum and Arts Center, the City of Sequim’s Music in the Park series, local Sequim festivals, construction of a BMX track and other community efforts.

Rychlik was selected the 2015 Sequim-Dungeness Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Citizen of the Year in February 2016.

Rychlik is survived by sister Kathy Hahn of Port Angeles. He had four children: Louie Jr. (deceased), Rodney, Cristina and Danyale (deceased), along with 11 grandchildren and many great-grandchildren, nephews, nieces and cousins in the Sequim and Port Angeles area.
