‘It’s amazing’: 90-year-old mail carrier recognized for nearly 65 years at USPS

SAGINAW, Mich. (WNEM) – Rain, snow, or shine, our postal carriers are out every day delivering our mail.

“Everything in life we have to work through. They really depend on us and we have to get out there and try, especially during the snowstorms,” said Randy Binckey, a United States Postal Service (USPS) carrier.

One Saginaw man has devoted his life to serving his community – for nearly 65 years – with no complaints, just a smile on his face.

Warren Wedding is a life-long Saginaw resident and Navy veteran who’s still delivering the mail at 90-years-old.

“Probably the easiest job I ever had. It’s just been something to keep me going for all these years. I said if I was probably still married I might have retired a long time ago, but now it’s worth it to just keep out of mischief,” Wedding said.

He started as a mail carrier in 1958 and since then, he has watched Saginaw change and grow.
