In this Legacy Interview, host Miles Beacom sits down with Paul Schock, son and nephew of Al and Ozzy Schock, 1990 South Dakota Hall of Fame Inductees.  

Paul discusses the life and legacy of his father and uncle, who together founded Terrace Park Dairy. The dairy was built in 1931 and bought by the Schock brothers during a tough dairy market dominated by Foremost Dairy and Crescent Creamery. Terrace Park Dairy operated in three states as a market outlet for milk produced in over 300 Grade A dairy farms. 

In 1959 they launched Nordica International. Terrace Park Dairy merged with Land O’ Lakes in 1969. Both brothers served as strong community leaders in the Sioux Falls area.
