Tallahassee Plant finds and returns Blakely GA customer's missed deposit

It was not a great Friday evening for Blakely, GA customer Azzie Williams when she realized she had accidently dropped a bank envelope with five $100 bills in the collection mail the day before.

According to Blakely Postmaster Wendy Powell, "Ms. Williams placed her bank envelope in her purse with her letters to mail on Thursday.  She discovered her mistake on Friday evening and mentioned it to her daughter." 

Ms. Williams daughter then contacted the Blakely Post Office where Powell sprung into action.

After interviewing the customer, Powell contacted Manager Processing and Distribution Linda Mungin in the Tallahassee Processing and Distribution Center who organized a search .

Tallahassee Mailhandler Johnny Fillmore  found the envelope and  it was returned to the Blakely Post Office.

"Ms. Williams said she didn’t know if she should cry or scream and gave me a very appreciative hug," said Powell.  "It has definitely made for a good week."
