Alex Trebek’s wife Jean reveals he would have ‘felt overwhelmed with humility and joy’ at receiving his own U.S. Postal Service Forever stamp

The United States Postal Service (USPS) released their new Forever stamp depicting iconic Jeopardy host Alex Trebek on Monday.

The stamp is styled after one of the video monitors on the clue board which reads, ‘This naturalized U.S. citizen hosted the quiz show for 37 seasons,’ with the correct response, ‘Who Is Alex Trebek?’ written upside down in the margin with Forever USA.

The stamp was put into USPS circulation on Monday, nearly four years after he passed away at age 80, with a book of 20 stamps styled as a full Jeopardy clue board with an image of Trebek.

His wife Jean, 60, who he tied the knot with back in 1990, said during a first-day release event in Los Angeles that her husband would have loved this tribute.

‘His life had such a beautiful impact on so many people around the world, and it’s just a real honor for my family and I to be here with all of you to acknowledge that,’ Jean began.
