Mr. Gasko was a kind, wonderful, hardworking gentleman who loved his family. He was always smiling after a long day on the farm.
I´m not sure why this popped up on my phone so many years later but it made me sad that I never stopped by the farm in years gone by. I grew up around the corner and went to school with a few of his children. I have many fond memories of Peter, Billy, and Wendy and their dad. They were/are something to be proud of! God bless the Gasko clan and extended family.
