Hello Avery! Wanted you to know that we moved our box to the back door to see how that'll work.  Thank you!

Avery you are the best! I am so sorry my dog barks at you LITERALLY every Wednesday. She is all bark though and says that she enjoys your visits! Thank you for being awesome!

Hi Avery. I wanted to let you know how much we appreciate and enjoy having you as our milkman. You've been so very flexible with all of the construction that's been going on at our house over the last several months, delivering to the back door instead of the front,  climbing the front bank when we didn't have stairs. It's always great to see you.
Thanks for all you do.

Hello Avery! there are two entrances to our townhome. We moved ours to the other side - you can enter from the street on the right side of the townhomes. Thanks!

Thank you. Milk is not milk unless its Smith Brothers. My husbands quote. Great job and on time delivery.

My son looks forward to the “cow” truck! We signed up for milk just so he can see the truck! He always tells Avery that he loves him and he loves strawberry milk!! Thanks for making our week so special! We appreciate the job you do!

Thank you Avery for delivering Ojo's most favorite food . The first thing she asks for is milk. Thank you for always delivering on time, because when we are out of it on Thursday morning I know you will deliver it before she wakes up. Good luck !

Hi Avery,
We want to thank you for the excellent service you are providing us.
Perhaps one of these days we will actually see you arrive and say hi
from a social distance.  In the meantime stay well and safe.

Thanks for delivering amidst the choppy schedule Avery.  Some weeks we go through products faster than others so it changes each time... we appreciate you getting things to us!
