USPS Houston District’s longest serving letter carrier retires after 55 years

A local TV station interviews Houston Letter Carrier Nyle Churchwell.

It’s the end of an era for Houston District, whose longest-serving letter carrier has retired after 55 years of service.

At a recent retirement ceremony, Houston District Manager William Mitchell and his leadership team thanked Nyle Churchwell for his service to customers, and for leaving behind a legacy of selfless commitment to USPS.

Churchwell retired from USPS with more than 4,000 hours of sick leave and two million miles of accident-free driving.

Churchwell served in the U.S. Air Force and graduated from college before joining the U.S. Postal Service 55 years ago. At the time, stamps were 3 cents and post offices were segregated.

He didn’t even have his own vehicle. He had to use the city bus, but his kindness stood out even then.

In his 55-year tenure, Churchwell has only had two routes. Rice University is one of them.
