Hello All,

I once lived in Tunkhannock around 1972-1975 or so when my father was employed there with Proctor & Gamble. As a child, I remember my mother going to a clothing store, which I believe was downtown, and was owned by a gentleman whose name, I believe, was Zalapa or something like that. Does anyone on the forum from Tunkhannock remember anything like this?

We also lived right next to the house of the owner and I remember he had a son named Robert. I wish I could remember the address of the house we lived in. It would be nice to try to find a picture on Google maps or something to see what it looks like.

Anyhow, my memories are pretty limited to that and to the elementary school. I remember watching Mr. Magoo movie reels in kindergarten

Thanks!

There is a clothing store downtown that has been there for years called Fitzes Department store-could this be it?

Was It a mens clothing store? Was your father a manager at Proctor and Gamble? I believe the store you are looking for is no longer and is now a restaurant called twigs. Does Bartrons mens store ring a bell?
