My name is Joe Asaro, I have had pigeons sense the 7th grade.My first birds were rollers from a guy that lived in Gardena,CA.I stop to watch his birds fly,all of about six loose out of his garage . He was getting out of pigeons to start his girl chasing.lol I got one red ck ticked cock and a light tort hen. They were Pensom birds he told me?from there I was off an running no turning back bike rides all over Wilmington, Torrance, Gardena,Compton looking at pigeons.If I had known at the time, Bill Pensom lived in Gardena and I would have been there on my bike in a flash.Years after and I married and moved to Manhattan Beach I meet one of the greatest rollermen in L.A area Bill E. Patrick.Bill had nothing but Bill Pensom stock.He gave me my start in 1969.I meet lots of great rollermen through him. His birds were pure and all would pedigree to the pensom imports in the 30s.In 1980 moved to Redding CA, now retired in 2008 and have Patrick birds again.I have been a member of the LAPC,PRC,HRC,BCR,NBRC,SCRC,NCRC in my pigeon hobby days.P.S. Bill Patrick was my mentor that is for sure. Yours in the sport Joe
