📬 After 25+ years of dedicated service, our longtime mail carrier, Mike, has officially retired!

Mike has been a constant bright spot in our days. Always friendly, always kind, and always dependable. We’ve been lucky to work alongside someone who embodied the spirit of community.

We celebrated his last day with a small sendoff to show our appreciation for the many years of care and consistency he brought to our doorstep. His presence will definitely be missed!

Here’s to a well-earned retirement, Mike! 💌💙
