We received a letter from our milk supplier yesterday; he is retiring from his farm-based dairy business.  Darn it.  I can’t recall how long we’ve been buying raw milk from Sam, however it’s been awhile.  Sam is a local, honest, reliable business man, and we appreciate the service he gave us.  The fact that Sam hand wrote a full-page letter to his customers testifies to the fact that he cared about the people he served.  It has been great to have fresh milk delivered to us and we’ll miss it.  Thanks, Sam.

And homemade ice cream season is just starting too.  Double darn it.
