Obituary for Gary Bessetti
Gary F. Bessetti, age 73, of Erie, passed away on October 5, 2019.
He was born in Erie on February 4, 1946, the son of the late Thomas and Virginia Wolf Bessetti.
Gary worked for many years at Ward’s Landscaping. He held the largest heart, the kindest soul, and the hardest work ethic ever known. He will be sorely missed and it will be difficult to live a life without him. He was always there for his children and grandchildren, never hesitating to spend time with his family. The way that he loved all of his grandchildren will never be forgotten.
