Cassarella & Stofko make up, sing Kumbaya

 

 

 

   “Unacceptable,” Wyoming Board candidate Jerry Stofko responded when asked about his outburst, “Sir if you go there I will meet you outside.”
   Stofko caught up with me after the Wyoming Area Board meeting and explained his actions at a meeting two months ago.
   As you know, a couple months back, Stofko shot back at Board Member Frank Cassarealla after Cassarella mumbled under his breath, “ask him (Stofko) where the rebar is.”
   Stofko is the stepfather of former board member Gerry Wall and allegations of missing rebar have run rampant over the last two years.. 
   “While he is my step son (Gerry Wall), he’s like my son and I took exception because Gerry is family,” Stofko said.
   “I went up to Frank after the meeting and worked things out,” Stofko told me at this past meeting.
   During this time, Cassarella came up to me and said, “Yes, Mr. Stofko and I are OK.  We did work things out.”
   When Stofko said his outburst was unacceptable he also noted he’s not like that and always conducts himself in a professional manner.
   It gives me great comfort to know Stofko and Cassarella “worked things out.”  And from what I observed, they are best buds now and are singing kumbaya in perfect harmony.
   That’s amazing, because at that same meeting Stofko said, “I’ve been attacked by Frankie down there, that’s what I’m going to call him because to me that’s all he is, a little boy.”
   I have to admit, I was taken aback a bit when Stofko came up to me because I don’t think Mr. Stofko said two words to me since I’ve been covering Wyoming Area.
