Secretary-Treasurer As I write my last article as Secretary-Treasurer I would like to reflect on the past four years. I have met so many wonderful people throughout this journey that were encouraging and supportive. Learning to meet the Tarheel deadline and write an article was one of my biggest challenges. I am very grateful for the confidence the members had to select me to serve for a fourth term. I am very honored that you placed your trust and confidence in me. Most of all I am grateful that I belong to a family that I can count on in difficult times. There was always someone that I could call on for guidance. During my mother’s death my NAPUS family was there to encourage, support and lend a helping hand. I don’t think I could have picked a better group of people to have as my extended family. I would like to thank Sarah Zimmerman who took me under her wings and who I could count on if I needed labels printed or a word of encouragement. If you had a question related to NAPUS or anything she was always there with the answer. I am proud to be a part of her extended family. During these days of uncertainty we need our extended family to rely on to help us through this turmoil. We all need to become involved and contact our Senators and Congressmen. First they took away our 10-day convention leave, then it was the 5-day convention leave, now we are fighting for HR22 next it may be our benefits and pay. If your neighbor office is not a member of NAPUS ask them to join us in helping to make our jobs easier by contacting their representatives. Thank you and I look forward to serving you next year.

(May/June) Make Plans for 2010 Now I also invited two Postmasters to attend the Secretary Treasurer
Seminar. During the sessions we had an opportunity to ask questions
and this seminar gives insight into the responsibility and duties
that the position of Secretary Treasurer is responsible for.
It also gave them a chance to decide if they want to be elected
to this position in June at the State Convention. If you didn’t
attend this year start now making plans for next year you won’t
regret meeting your Senator’s and Representatives.
As we embark into 2009 don’t forgot how far we came in 2008. Things got tighter for all of us but we still delivered each package and every piece of mail every day and for many of us we were accident free. While other companies were closing or handing out pink slips we still felt the threat of layoffs not to mention the budget cuts we received this past year. Even though your NPA may not be what you would have liked we can still be grateful that we have a good job and a good group of Postmasters to lean on for support. I am very thankful for the Postmasters and co-workers in the Caswell area. In December the Leasburg, Milton, Pelham, Prospect Hill, Providence, Ruffin, Semora and Yanceyville postal workers collected over 3300 pounds of food for the local shelter to distribute during the holiday. This was the most food we had collected since I’ve been Postmaster at Yanceyville. Considering the many who had lost jobs this year people still reached out to give. As an incentive the employees in Yanceyville decided to give to the local Christmas Cheer. Each year we exchange gifts in the office but this year we decided that money could better be used to help someone less fortunate so we donated $250 to help someone else have a Merry Christmas. The season between Thanksgiving and Christmas is about giving but these employees give everyday and I am proud to be a part of this community and call myself one of the Postmasters in Caswell County. I hope every one has a New Year that will be prosperous.
