Condolences to the entire Yatsonsky clan. Very few of you know me but I was a very good friend of Eugene. We and our other good friend, Ron Matoushek spent many a day on the farm. Mr Yatsonsky was always around and helped us with our various "projects." One of Mr Yatsonky's other passions was wildlife and he dedicated himself to wildlife as a Deputy Wildlife Conservation Officer. The escapades that he use to tell us spurred me to become a Deputy also, which culminated in a 20 year passion of mine. Again, I am sorry that I didn't get a chance to pay my respects in person but I hope this can suffice.
