LOCAL & STATE Record-Courier TUESDAY AUGUST 2, 2016 PAGE A3 Triangle Pharmacy loses a familiar face Robert Wentzell may have sold Triangle Pharmacy more than 20 years ago, but one member of his family stayed part of the iconic Ravenna business for two more de- cades. On Friday, 45 years of ex- perience walked out the door when Bobbie Migliozzi decid- ed to retire. She had worked at Triangle for a total of 45 years as a pharmacy tech- nician. She said she joined the business in 1964, working with Wentzell, her brother- in-law. Although she took a few jobs briefly over the years, she always found herself com- ing back to the pharmacy, which still makes deliveries, still makes packets of med- ications for customers who have a hard time keeping them straight and still does compounding. It also is one of the few remaining drug stores with a lunch counter and soda fountain. “I’ve seen one generation after another after another,” she said. “I think that’s what I’ll miss most. Most of my re- ally good friends were people I met in this place.” The pharmacy was pur- chased by Andy Drnjevich and Jim Coll in 1992. Went- zell, along with Jim Spidell, had purchased the business in 1953 from Earl Likens. Back then, the Ravenna Hotel was next door to the pharmacy. In later years, the hotel was renovated and be- came Etna House, a residence for senior citizens. During quiet moments, pharmacy staff can still hear the eleva- tor next door, Migliozzi said. Both the pharmacy and soda fountain have moved over the years, with the cur- rent lunch counter added in the late 1960s or early 1970s. During the years when Wentzell was in charge, her sons, Mark and Jim Antal, remember cola syrup being retrieved from the pharma- cy when a child in the family had an upset stomach. Both worked as stock boys, and re- membered “Uncle Bob” being harder on them than he was on coworkers who weren’t family. Migliozzi and her husband, Jim, also raised two other sons, Jim and Anthony Mi- gliozzi, and have six grand- children. Many of her family members and friends came to wish her well on her last day. She hopes to spend more time with family, including making greater use of the family’s Ohio lake house, and traveling to Florida during the winter. Drnjevich said Migliozzi had worked closely with his wife, Kathy, who is a regis- tered nurse who works in the pharmacy. He said Tri- angle sticks to many tradi- tions it has always held to, and still sees some custom- ers who came to Ravenna af- ter Thompson’s Drug Store closed. “It’s going to be different for everybody now,” he said.

Triangle Pharmacy loses a familiar face
Robert Wentzell may have sold Triangle Pharmacy more than 20 years ago, but one member of his family stayed part of the iconic Ravenna business for two more de-cades.
On Friday, 45 years of ex-perience walked out the door when Bobbie Migliozzi decid-ed to retire. She had worked at Triangle for a total of 45 years as a pharmacy tech-nician.
She said she joined the business in 1964, working with Wentzell, her brother-in-law.

It also is one of the few remaining drug stores with a lunch counter and soda fountain.
“I’ve seen one generation after another after another,” she said. “I think that’s what I’ll miss most. Most of my re-ally good friends were people I met in this place.”
The pharmacy was pur-chased by Andy Drnjevich and Jim Coll in 1992. Went-zell, along with Jim Spidell, had purchased the business in 1953 from Earl Likens.
Back then, the Ravenna Hotel was next door to the pharmacy. In later years, the hotel was renovated and be-came Etna House, a residence for senior citizens. During quiet moments, pharmacy staff can still hear the eleva-
tor next door, Migliozzi said. Both the pharmacy and
soda fountain have moved over the years, with the cur-rent lunch counter added in the late 1960s or early 1970s.
