I have had Jason as my milkman for many years, he is a very sweet  and caring man.  My only thing I am sorry about is that my day is changed.  I do not  know what the new time is, but I will survive. I really love Smith Brothers Dairy and I tell a lot of people about you.  Thanks for your service!

Hi, Jason. Happy National Milkman Day 2019!  Thank you for making our delivery every week; we have no idea how you get in and out of the yard without waking the dogs. It's a great skill  and we wish our other delivery drivers could figure it out.

Best wishes to you and your great looking family. Take care. Rhonda and Craig Lewis

Thanks Jason for always delivering our milk and stuff with care! Out of curiosity, did you play a lot of Tetris as a kid because you miraculously fit our order in the milk box every week!

We appreciate you, Jason, our milkman for many years! Thanks for all the "little things" you do for us every week. Covid-19 has been a little less challenge because you're in our neighborhood. Best wishes to you and yours.

Jason, we are so grateful for your service! Especially how you kindly avoid the plant life we invariably put on your way to our milk box! ☺️ It is such a relief to know that, despite draining the last drop of milk from the carton the night before, we will have fresh milk in the morning! Thank you so much!  From the Zimmerpeople ☺️
