LADISLAUS ROSKO

Fr. Rosko had a vision to move St. Margaret of Hungary from the Buckeye Road neighborhood.

Well Done Father Rosko, we miss you.

I do not know Father Rosko but my mother, margaret(margita ribar) was born in Nadost in 1917 She is now deceased but I just wonder if they knew each other. May he rest in God's eternal light. Thank you tending to yur flock. Though late, my thoughts prayers w/ his family. Carole King Steubenville Ohio. Peace

Fr. Rosko will be truly missed. I known him my entire life. He has baptized me and he did my first holy communion.He will be remembered always. Rest in peace Fr. Rosko.

The caring, support and kindnesses extended to my parents and our family by Fr. Rosko are still fresh in my memories.
His courage and devotion in keeping St. Margaret's an active church were admirable. May he rest in peace along with my parents and all the St. Margaret's parishioners who have passed and who deeply loved their church home.

I wish the parish could have remained open - such dedicated members. ...
