Stamps always make news in Link, and last week was no exception.
We told you about the Postal Service’s plans to release Thank You Healthcare Community, a stamp recognizing health care workers, and invited you to share your memories of “Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek, who’ll be honored with a stamp next week.
As the Wimbledon Championships conclude, we also looked at U.S. tennis stars who’ve been featured on stamps through the years.
Additionally, we reminded you of USPS price changes that take effect Sunday, July 14; we told you how the Postal Inspection Service is working to protect the vote this election year; and we shared a video progress report on changes to the Postal Service’s processing and distribution network.
Other highlights included our “Heroes” profile of Plymouth, OH, Postmaster Edward Blum, who helped a customer put out a lawnmower fire, and our “People” item on Willie Relliford and Glenn Sisco, two Memphis, TN, tractor-trailer operators who recently spoke at a local elementary school’s career day.
“It was a pleasure representing the Postal Service and encouraging the students to continue their studies — and maybe in the future becoming a proud postal employee,” Relliford said.
