The ice man was also a pleasant memory.All the boys would jump on the back of the truck and take chunks of ice when the man was inside filling the old ice boxes.

I too remember the ice man

It used to be your life was touched by all sorts of people . There were all those folks that brought stuff to you..ice, fruits,bread and milk..there was Jewel tea man and the fuller brush man..

You got to know these people ..kids today have no such touch stone..

When I grew up we had a neighborhood food store that was in a 10 x 12 store front, a butcher and a baker ..we knew all their names..We got all dressed up to go "downtown " to pay bills and shop

Fond memories of many people now gone
