Well an end of an era is coming to a close. Beginning September 24,2026 East Side Pharmacy will be under new ownership. Since 1997 -2026- owning since April 2003 - this has been Mike’s second (sometimes first ! ) home and place of employment . It truly is Bittersweet.

His 62 nd birthday on Thursday September 24, 2026 is also Happy Retirement Day ! He has put his heart and soul and life into this pharmacy and he is forever grateful to his staff , and his faithful customers who have been with him all the way. The legacy once established by Chris Assid who passed the mantle onto Mike has been a pillar pharmacy in our community! East side will be forever in his heart!

Staff will remain as well as Alexandra as one of the pharmacists and it will be called New Castle pharmacy ( a merging of this pharmacy down on the south side and east side ) . Please come and continue to support this Independent pharmacy.

God bless you Mike and may this next chapter be tremendous (as dad would say!)

With a great love and gratitude for everyone that made East Side successful.
Forever grateful

Mike Fornataro and staff
Maura Fornataro ( Mike’s wife who would oversee the page )
