Boswell Perscription Center was purchased in 1964 by Joseph M. Martella, Sr. As a child, Joe Sr. worked for his uncle in the same pharmacy, formerly known as Kinney's Drugs. Joe Sr. was a graduate of Duquesne University School of Pharmacy. He was the proud father of six children, three of whom now are involved in operating the family business. Joe Sr. was most noted by his customers for his attention to customer service, his compassion and his charitable contributions to local charities and youth sports leagues. Joe Sr. passed away in 2001. It was at that time that his son, Joseph Jr. and his daughter Jackie took over the pharmacy as Co-owners. Like their father, they are both graduates of Duquesne University School of Pharmacy and they both grew up working in the family pharmacy.
