Mr Pasko taught me French 1 at Mountain View High School in the mid 70’s. His individualized approach helped even the most challenged linguist to learn the basics and was influential in his teaching. His “Acute e repete” still rings in my mind. I am glad to have had his presence in my life.

Jeanne and Family,
I’m so sorry for your loss. Paul and I taught together and car-pooled for 9 years. We never had a cross word but we did have thousands of laughs. He was a dedicated teacher and a great friend. May he rest in peace and may God comfort you at this terrible time.

My condolences to Mr. Pasko’s family. He made learning French such a fun experience and the Quebec trip that our French Club took in 1973 with the Zablotsky’s bus was one I will NEVER forget. Blessings to his loving family.

Jeanne and family,
So sorry for your loss. Spent a lot of night hanging around and talking with Paul at the Acme, we even managed to get a little work done. Such a great personality, he helped a quiet kid to break out his shell. May he rest in peace.
