Mick Tutton has been delivering milk around his small suburb of Hertfordshire, England, since 1976. 

❤️ More than a milkman.... the 65-year-old is someone of a legend around town. According to a local news publication, Mick is regarded as the community's unofficial security guard, social worker, football pundit, and cheerleader.

  • When news spread that Mick's faithful milk truck had broken down and he would be retiring, residents raised £15,282 (~$20,000) for him to live off of before his pension kicks in next year. 

💭 What they're saying: "He was so much more than our milkman," fundraiser organizer Kate Crick told HertsLive. "He looked out for people, especially the elderly, and became a family friend to many of us. Our children have grown up knowing and loving him, and our dogs too."
