Before moving out of her neighborhood, Madison Vaughan sent her mailman a thoughtful gift
She added: “This is my first apartment, I grew up here pretty much, I grew into my adult life.”
She added: “This is my first apartment, I grew up here pretty much, I grew into my adult life.”To her surprise, Tim sent her another card in return. “He wrote such a thoughtful thing,” she said, sharing a part of the message that reads, “It has been a pleasure being your mailman.”
“This ruined me!” Madison exclaimed while scanning the heartfelt card. “I’m going to keep it forever.”
Reading the letter, Madison discovered that her move coincided with Tim’s retirement. “He said, ‘Good luck on your move. I will be retiring at the end of the year, anyway. So I wouldn’t have been your mailman.”
Though they didn’t share a close bond, Madison feels like Tim has been present for most of her major milestones. Over the years, the contents of the packages he delivered to her door changed, reflecting the different stages of her life.
“I remember anticipating when he would drop off my school schedule and even my college acceptance letters,” she told People.
Her mailman responded with a touching card where he announced his retirement after nearly three decades
