We lived in a Devlin’s Pointe Townhouse in Allison Park, Pennsylvania, which is a Pittsburgh suburb.
We ate at King’s restaurant often.
Joseph D. Gizienski and Donna ate there too.
Joe bought his dog hamburgers at the restaurant, and he paid for our meals.
One of his early accomplishments was he started a truck he had bought, which had been underwater. He was an owner operator in the trucking business, and had employees working in the freight trucking business. He owned a garage in 1972, where he salvaged 18 wheeler type tractors. He built a truck garage near his home about the same time. He bought stationary diesel engines in the US, shipped and sold them in South America. He bought a farm, which had a vein of coal in it, removed rocks, and sold the coal. Tesone Trucking Company in Allison Park, helped to remove the rocks.He bought and constructed a tankfarm tank on his local gas station. Estimated price to fill the tank; millions of dollars.
Our daughter Vicki Callender was 12 years old in 1972. She was a babysitter for Joe. He had five daughters. Tammy, Terry, Tracy Theressa, and Tina. Joe supplied the daughters with cars. They dove the cars as a team, when they were three to ten years old. Tammy, the oldest, would steer, and Tina the youngest would push down the gas pedal.
Our daughter Vicki is now 62 years old, and is secretary at East Union Presbyterian Church. West Deer police still meet at East Union Presbyterian Church, and Tina Gizienski is in West Deer law enforcement.
Joe lives in a recently built home. It has an elevator to take passengers up from the basement.
