Our Story, Our Legacy

The story of the Gasque family begins with James Gasque and Mamie Gasque, whose unwavering devotion, resilience, and values created the foundation upon which generations now stand.
 Their lives were marked by strength, faith, and an unshakeable commitment to family — a legacy that continues to guide us today.

From their union came nine children whose lives shaped the character and spirit of every branch that followed.
 Together, they are known as the Divine Nine — the pillars of our lineage, the carriers of our traditions, and the roots from which our family tree has flourished.

As we gather in celebration, remembrance, and unity, we honor these nine remarkable souls whose love stretched across decades and continues to echo through every child, grandchild, and great-grandchild.

Encourage younger helpers to record family elders.


May their legacy remind us that we are connected not only by blood, but by purpose, history, and the enduring strength of the Gasque name. Amen.
