Delivery men in town.

Some things have come forward in FaceBook that brought back some memories. I thought I'd mention mine and see who else had memories of delivery men who used to come to town.
I remember the huckster who used to bring fruit and vegetables. Don't know his name, but I do remember it being an old blue van with awnings I believe out of the sides. The next would be probably Fairview Dairy deliveries. I don't know if Harold Lutz was the milk man for them or not. Bill? Can you correct me here? Of course many years later Mike Vendetti delivered all our dairy needs.
Bill Letcher who delivered our bread for Sunbeam aka Freihofer's bakery...... Was this relation of the Letcher's in town? A stout man who our one dalmation detested. ;) He also delivered our wonderful purchased birthday cakes, a real treat, from Easton Bakery.
I'm trying to think if there were more. Of course Weiller's store had delivery and Lance worked delivering for them for a while. I don't recall if Leo's or anyone before them had delivery. Can someone help me out here?
