"Uncle" Mike Fosko Taken By Death

Funeral Services Held Sunday Afternoon, Conducted by the Rev. Paul S. Durbin.

Mike Fosko, known to most of his acquaintances as "Uncle Mike," died at his home in North Third street last Saturday about noon. He was 73 years of age, a native of Italy, but had lived in America some 45 years and in this city for the greater part of that time, where he operated a peanut and pop-corn machine.

Father Durbin conducted a service for the deceased at the Catholic church Sunday afternoon, which was followed by interment in Fairmount Cemetery.

Mike Fosko is survived by a brother, Henry Fosko, a resident also of Central City. His wife died some four years ago. He took an orphan boy in its babyhood and raised him as Tony Fosko. He now lives in Paducah.
