By 1947, Roy Deal was apparently out of the picture as only the two Gray brothers are listed in the city directory as being associated with the Lorain Creamery. A 1949 Lorain phone book ad depicted the distinctive building (see top ad).
A 1956 ad (see lower ad) introduced a new, cleaner rendering of the building, as well as a curious swap of the phrases in their slogan. By that time there were 14 dairies in town, including Home Dairy and Cloverdale.

Roy Deal died in about 1947 of a heart attack. That's why he was out of the picture. He was only in his 40s.
Thank you very much for leaving the comment about Mr. Deal’s untimely passing as being the reason that his name was no longer associated with the dairy that he purchased along with the Grays.
