MARLBOROUGH — Longtime mail carriers Dave Travers and Charles “Chuck” Searles celebrated their retirement last week with a ceremony at the Marlborough Post Office.
With 64 years of experience between them, Travers and Searles were lauded for their dedication over a combined 64 years of USPS work.
“[We] appreciate what you have given to the company and the customers,” Postmaster Nicholas Teslikis said.
Travers made 700 deliveries per-day as a letter carrier to the middle of Marlborough. Searles, a rural carrier, delivered to the west end covering areas around Bigelow Street, Millham Street, Elm Street and the vicinity.
“I’ve seen a lot of changes in the Post Office,” said Travers. “Just the way that the mail is handled with different processes.”
“It’s been a great career,” said Searles. “A new generation has taken over.”
