My new book “Lunch Poems” is NOW AVAILABLE for purchase HERE! Thanks so much for your support.  Sadly, I hadn't realized that Jaison’s Department Store in McKeesport, Pennsylvania was demolished  in January, 2022. Founded in 1926 by the Balter family, Jaison’s was a high-end clothing store that eventually grew to include locations in Braddock, Greengate Mall, Monroeville Mall, South Hills Village Mall, Southland Shopping Center, and  Century III Mall. Jaison’s was one of the anchors of the Downtown McKeesport business district, but it went into decline following layoffs at U.S. Steel’s National Works, and the plant’s eventual closure. The McKeesport store closed in 1985. It became a bingo hall in 1991.

its so weird because...when you live in the same place with more or less the same people for generations...you meet your soulmates. “i knew your grandmother” “i went to school with your uncle” “he’s a part of this family” ...endless and continual crossing of paths and always being connected...always being known to some degree...
