I uploaded photos to a gallery so my grandchildren could learn more about my Dad....the great-grandfather they never got to meet. He opened a "filling station" in 1931 when he and my Mom married. He was still working the day he suffered his fatal heart attack in 1978 at the age of 79.
Believe it or not: One man would check your tires,another your oil, another would clean your windshield while someone filled your tank.....a big believe it or not!
I love this photo.....can't sell much gas to a horse-drawn buggy!
