Save A Piece of Oxford History
First off, thank you for taking time out of your day to visit this site. It has been a long journey to get our family to this point, but we love each one of you who have stuck it out with us.
Robert Dean Whiteaker, "Pizza Bob", opened the Pizza Den in 1966. He moved to Oxford with his wife Barbara Whiteaker and his five children, Julie, Jeff, Judy, Bobby, and Cathy. The Pizza Den (originally Pizza King) was one of the first restaurants to open in Oxford. Through out the years each one of his children, and grandchildren, have had part in the restaurant. Not only have generations of Whiteakers been apart of growing up around the Pizza Den, but also generations of Alumni.
After the murder of Pizza Bob in 1998, his children took on the responsibility of the restaurant, some of them dedicating their entire life to continue the legacy.
Through trials and tribulations we have come to a finanial standstill. Through circumstances we currently owe for taxes. All money donated will be used in the effort to save the Pizza Den. ANYTHING that you can spare would be GREATLY appreciated. We love all of our customers and look at you like family. You have been with us through the good times, and hope you will stay with us through the bad times.
Thank you again.
