Oil Heat Cares

Southeast PA Chapter Project 5


The new Thermo Pride furnace.	L to R: Chuck Lavendar, Dennis Allen, Zeke Miller, Shawn Brecker, Dick Griffin, Dan Smith	Luis Lizasuain and his family.

Although blessed with a new baby, this young family has seen better days.

Members of the Southeast PA Chapter spearheaded this – Mack Services. The new mom had health issues and needed surgery, then got laid off from her job. Her husband, Luis Lizasuain, has health problems, too.

Helping neighbors in need is what Oil Heat Cares is all about...so as a customer of Mack Services, Parkesburg location, these guys came to the rescue. Chuck Lavendar, Dennis Allen, Zeke Miller, Shawn Brecker, Dick Griffin, Dan Smith (pictured) as well as Eric Jameson, Mike Moley and Paul McKernan. They delivered the new equipment and helped to get the old heater and oil tank out. Ingrid Gladden, one of Mack's secretaries, brought out donuts and coffee for everyone and provided moral support. As you can see, that this was a total company effort. These angels gave up their paid day off on Good Friday to install the equipment. They started around 7:00AM and the last truck pulled out around 10:30AM.

Thermopride supplied the heater at a discount to replace the old cracked one. Sid Harvey's donated the items needed for the heater. Johnstone Supply of Downingtown donated the parts needed for the oil tank and K.G. Whiteman in West Chester donated the custom ductwork parts for the heater. Thanks to all of them as well.
