We feel very fortunate to live in a town with this outstanding USPS team. They (Ed is the only one we know by name) always handle our mails and packages with care. On rainy days, they would always secure packages that don't fit in our mailbox in a plastic bag. Recently when a piece of oversized package didn't fit in the bag, Ed carried it all the way down the driveway to our house. Thank you, the Dover USPS team!
