Hi Jeanette, Sounds like it might be "SKEEZIX". The cartoon was "Gasoline Alley". It was one of the few cartoons where people actually aged as the years went by. His father became a Grandfather etc:. The Gasoline Alley was a Gas Station the family owned. Was a family friendly cartoon with a lot of real life episodes. I think SKEEZIX Father's name was WALT but I won't swear to it.
Anthony, I like Carrots in my Pot Roast with a good natural Gravy!

I DONT REMEMBER YOUR GRANDMA WORKING THERE, BUT YOU COUSIN FRANKIE,WORKED THERE USE TO LET ME AND MY FRIENDS IN FREE.
I TRYING TO THINK IF IT WAS PATRINA BROTHER, OR COUSIN, HIS LAST NAME COULD HAVE BEEN MINAFO, OR NAPOLI......NOT TO SURE??
HE WAS A VERY FUNNY GUY,MADE YOU LAUGH ALL THE TIME.
GOOD MOMORIES ANYWAY......ENJOY YOU SUNDAY

Hi Jeanette, I'm not sure who that cousin is, my mom can't recall either but I'll check around and find out who is it. It could be Frankie Napoli or Marrone.
My grandmother worked there in the 40's-50's, her name was Ethel.
Have a nice evening!! -
