RFD-TV has been a supporter of FFA since our beginning, and that is thanks to Founder Patrick Gottsch who passed away earlier this year.
Patrick was honored by the organization this week, and Kirbe Schnoor caught up with his daughter, Raquel Gottsch Koehler, who accepted the award on her father’s behalf.
Also this week, Patrick will receive a star on the Texas Trail of Fame in the Fort Worth Stockyards.
