It was a state of the art dairy by the standards of the time - with a pasteurizing and bottling plant, and fresh milk delivered daily by trucks that had plastic cows on the front that "mooed" for the neighborhood children.In the late sixties, Stew Leonard, Charles' son, realized the milk delivery business was going the way of the horse and buggy.
