On
her
wedding
day,
Dave
Van
Aken’s
wife
looked
out
at
the
people
gathered
at
their
small
Queens
parish.
She
saw
about
20
unfamiliar
faces
among
the
guests
and
asked
her
new
husband
who
they
were.
Those
20
assembled
were
stay‐at‐home
moms,
retired
couples
and
non‐working
families
along
Van
Aken’s
route
as
a
letter
carrier
for
the
United
States
Postal
Service.
Although
his
customers
knew
he
was
getting
married,
he
hadn’t
told
them
the
specifics,
like
which
church
the
ceremony
was
going
to
be
at.
However,
that
didn’t
stop
them
from
wg
to
celebrate
this
new
chapter
in
their
mailman’s
life.
“They
become
your
friends,”
said
Van
Aken,
who
was
just
as
surprised
to
see
them
as
his
wife.
“It
becomes
very
difficult
to
separate
them
from
people
in
your
regular
life.”
Van
Aken
has
been
a
letter
carrier
for
over
two
decades,
spending
the
last
several
years
in
Sunnyside,
Queens.
In
that
time,
he
has
seen
children
grow
from
babies
to
go
on
to
college.
Some
of
the
people
on
his
route
have
given
him
baby
clothes
for
his
own
son.
On
his
route,
he
usually
delivers
th
first
to
businesses
and
then
to
homes.
That
way
the
businesses
can
get
started
earlier
in
the
day
and
operate
more
efficiently.
A
couple
times
a
year
he
smokes
cigars
with
a
lawyer
from
his
old
route
he
met
and
befriended.
In
the
spring
of
2013,
the
Postmaster
General
in
Washington,
D.C.
announced
ns
to
cut
Saturday
letter
delivery
starting
in
August
of
that
year
to
save
$2
billion
annually,
according
to
the
U.S.
Postal
Service.
