Mike,

Enjoyed this history. I have some Matanuska milk bottles and cartons of products from the dairy. Thanks again.

My wife Mary Gray represented the Matanuska maid on the float in 1959, at fur rendezvous. She was a beautiful person inside and out

Remember this when you poured on The Matanuska Maid Milk into your bowl of Rice Krispies?
