Gentile will serve his city with distinction

Michael Gentile gives back in his career and personal life.

Gentile and I were in orientation together for Upstate Cerebral Palsy, I was going to work Residential and he was going to be a teacher in a college program helping people with disabilities get jobs and learn life skills. It was refreshing to hear about how he was excited to work with his new students, and help them reach their full potential and get them jobs. It did not take long to see his dedication and compassion. The other interesting thing I noticed is that his lunches, breaks, and typically right after orientation let out, he was always using that time for something for the community.

We need young people like this that will represent all of us in Utica, to help Utica reach its full potential just like he does his students. Please vote Michael Gentile Utica Council At- Large.
