A young girl of eight years old had written a moving letter to her deceased father, but it was misplaced in the mail. The letter was delivered back to Sianna, though, by a postman who, like her, had recently lost his father.
Right after the letter vanished, the girl’s mother, Sarah Tully, put out a call on social media for assistance in locating her daughter’s letter.
Tully, who was unaware of the contents of her daughter’s message to the recipient, ‘Sianna just asked, ‘Where does Daddy live?’ that evening in order to write down the address for a letter she had written, according to Heaven, Cloud Nine, who spoke to Leicester Live.
I usually say that’s between her and her dad because I have no idea what’s in it. When she started crying, I initially told her it was too late to post it. I then responded, ‘Come on then,’ and we walked to the post office down the street.’
Sianna, whose father died when she was just four months old, had an increasing fascination with him as she grew older.
She would write to him annually on his birthday, Father’s Day, and Christmas. Tully asked for assistance in locating the mail after she was unable to discover it in a neighboring post box.
Meanwhile, a postman named Simon accidentally discovered her misplaced letter. ‘I deliver mail in the Braunstone neighborhood.
A letter in a child’s handwriting addressed to their dad in Heaven, Cloud 9, was discovered when I just cleaned out the red pillar box on Bewicke Road.
‘I’m looking for the child’s parents because I want to get in touch with them and, with their consent, arrange a small favor for the child’ On social media, he posted.
I lost my father last year, and even as an adult, I found it difficult. I can’t even begin to think what this kid is going through, he continued. Tully found this message and ‘couldn’t believe what I saw,’ she claimed.
As she ‘I’m blown away by how the postman and everyone else who has seen the post have responded.
Since then, I haven’t stopped crying. I never once considered that it would be discovered or used in any way.’
The postman told BBC that after reading the letter, he was ‘very taken aback.’ ‘Without a stamp or a real address, it would undoubtedly wind up being thrown away in transportation if it were included with the rest of the items to be sent.
I asked my manager if I might try to contact the family to learn more about it and return it to them in a conversation’ He revealed.
Tully was incredibly grateful to Simon and the random individuals who assisted her in finding the letter.
‘She was so young, and only now is she beginning to comprehend. She was more emotional this year, therefore I think that’s why she may have taken it the hardest’ the mother remarked.
