Our Postmaster says they will never send a text like this: "The USPS package arrived at the warehouse but could not be delivered due to incomplete address information. Please confirm your address in the link. (A LIVE LINK FOLLOWS THAT REQUEST BUT DON'T CLICK ON IT.)If you have any concerns that the Post Office might need information, call them at 270.384.3206. 2024-06-27 00:12:45 | Comments | Printable version Birthdays and Anniversaries for June 27 Happy Anniversary, Bethany and Chad Coffey (2009) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Anniversary, Gerald and Cynthia Coomer | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Anniversary, James and Marsha Roberts (1986) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Anniversary, Paul and Cathy Abell | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Amanda Gayle Miller (1983) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Angie Crawhorn | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Barrett K.
