Farm Days Gone By
Peg (Stafford) Furto shares this photo of father, Bill Stafford, Sr., who hauled milk from area dairy farmers to Weber Dairy in Joliet almost all of his life, until he stopped in approximately 1972 or 73. He started out hauling milk in cans in approximately 1936, before buying his own bulk truck in the early 1960s. They lived on a farm in Will County near Minooka at the time these pictures were taken around 1960. He bought the land from his father, Art Stafford, and helped farm it with his brother, George Stafford, Sr.
