- RGRichard GonzalesAug 30, 20255.0Yeah I get people frustrations but I’ve never had a bad experience going into the post office, these guys work hard and do what they can to help, sometimes they are just tied up by the rules, not their faults
- AMAlyssa MarxJul 2, 20255.0I would like to recognize my mail carrier in Columbus township, Ron, for the extraordinary service that he provides day in and day out as my mail carrier. He goes above and beyond in his work and is very professional and kind with any interactions I’ve had with him. His exemplary work ethic does not go unnoticed as a resident in this community! Huge thank you to you Ron! Sincerely, Lynn Hoff
