HEY!  Aren't you my milkman from Proctor?  I thought you were going to work somewhere else.  I was just looking up my current milkman to leave a nice message, since it is milkman thank you time.  I haven't met him.  Miss you.  I hope you are happy with the new area.  Liz Mason on North Proctor in Tacoma.

Thank you Erik for taking care of our family for a very long time.  I can literally tell the day of the week by the fact that the milk delivery has arrived- always on time and without issues.  Our family has changed in size, but we still love the weekly deliveries.  You are appreciated!

Thank you for the reliable deliveries week after week! I very much appreciate you and the work you do.

The Milkman

by Clive Sansom

Clink, clink, clinkety-clink,
The milkman's on his rounds, I think.
Crunch, crunch, come the milkman's feet
Closer and closer along the street —
Then clink, clink, clinkety-clink,
He's left our bottles of milk to drink.

Thank you, Erik, for your delivery of our products, safely and on time.  We increased our delivery to weekly with the stay-at-home order, and so appreciate your work so our family, and extended family, can eat fresh dairy and other foods every week.  Hope you and your family remain healthy.  We appreciate you!

Thank you Erik for your hard work and dedication, always, and especially now. Your weekly deliveries and Smith Brothers' variety of offerings have supported us to go out much less, and stay home and stay healthy. We appreciate you so much and wish you and your family health and happiness! With Gratitude, Sharon

Hi Erik!  Happy to be back in Tacoma and back with Smith Bros.  We were in DC for a while and had to buy our box there, so if you don't mind we'll keep using it here. If you have a big Smith Bros sticker, I'll happily put it on the box over the South Mountain one!
