“Am I mad at the postal service? Yes. Am I angry? Yes. The mail will still be there, but my husband won’t.”
Gates leaves behind his wife Carla and two children. The postal worker was also a grandfather of multiple children.Before Gates’ tragic death while on the clock, the USPS had recently changed the time carriers began delivering the mail from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. The carriers union met on Wednesday morning in the wake of one of their member’s death, with the union president saying they would move the start time for their carriers back to 7:30 a.m.
As the Gates family waits on an official cause of death, they revealed to the outlet that he leaves behind two children, multiple grandchildren, and his wife, Carla. “That’s so sad that a wife is mourning her husband and children and grandchildren. This neighborhood will mourn him,” Lucas told the outlet.
