He's been picking up and dropping off mail along the same 60-mile route for all that time. But recently, he made the decision to hang up the mailbag. So when the community found out he would longer be part of their daily lives, the wanted to show their appreciation for him. They made special deliveries of their own in the form of signs all along his route. The signs had messages like "We will miss you Tim," "You're the best mailman in the world," and "Congrats Tim, gone fishin."
