Nick I remember your Uncle well. My dad always had our cars serviced there. I recall the Christmas promotions that Texaco ran when I was a kid – there was always a toy tanker truck available. One year Texaco offered a fire truck – my dad bought the last one available that year from Clete.
The Texaco station at 8th & Cook was my uncle’s.
Cletus Diss owned Diss Texaco. One of the nicest men I ever knew. “Coldest Water in Town”.

I lived in the house on the south side of Cook across from the one pictured. I would love to see more photos from this area
