1980s – Donald Grows the Station

In the 1980s, Emilio’s son, Donald Vincent Ranni, took over day-to-day operations. He modernized the pumps, expanded services, and kept the friendly, local feel that people loved.

Today, Gulf Gas on George Street is run by Emilio’s grandson and Donald’s son, Don Emilio Ranni. With new 24/7 self-serve pumps and eco-friendly touches, the station is ready for the next generation of drivers.
