Now back in those days, to become a rural mail carrier you had to be approved by congress.

I was single for six years and during those six years I went back to college and got my degree in Social Work and then... while I was single... Barney came here to Portsmouth on vacation.

My mother was a union member. She was a mail carrier, a rural mail carrier. She called herself a 'postal packin' grandma' for a good period of time.

In them I just said, 'I love you. Please be careful. Please be careful . . .' But I never got to mail them. I never got to give him his Christmas presents, either.

I mean you might say he had a travelling post office, but also Barney was very, very active. He was a legal officer for the NAACP and they had a lot of problems after Pease.

You can't recover memories of a missing event. That's a fallacy.
