Dear John

Posted on by

Happy retirement wishes

Last week saw the retirement of John, our long serving postman to our villages here in the Langtons, Stonton Wyville and Glooston.

John took up his round 34 years ago. A staggering number which we’re all quite amazed by. It feels like five minutes! The time truly flies!

Over the years, John has become a friend to us all, always ready with a smile and wave.

All the villages paid tribute one way or another and his last round on Friday took much longer than usual as he was greeted along the way.

Gifts and cards were given and I reckon his van was riding a little heavier on the way back than when it came out!

Local artist, Maxine Dodd, was asked by Church Langton residents Sue Atton and Maxine Johnson to create a leaving card for John. A task that she was delighted to undertake for this valued friend of the community.

Maxine created a map of his route with a card from the people. The envelope bears a special stamp featuring the King himself toasting his dedicated postie!

John’s card

The card was printed and signed and the original framed as a special gift for John to remind him of us.

We were all out waiting to wave him off…

We are a small community and the post is a vital service. How fortunate we were to have such kind and dedicated man to bring our post to us.

Thank you John, happy retirement and come and see us soon!

George and John
