Post Office staff says farewell to retiring Candi Stockton Flowers By Linda Waggener Candice (Candi) Stockton Flowers was honored April 25, 2018 at her retirement from a 33 year career at the USPS, Columbia, KY. Family, current and former coworkers surrounded her to wish her well as she embarks on the new career of more time with husband Joseph Flowers and many more hours with her five grandchildren. Postmaster Randal Murrell called the crew to join him as he said how much she would be missed and he read aloud this Certificate of appreciation: "Candice Lynn Flowers for exceptional meritorious achievement and contributions while serving as the senior sales and service associate, lead clerk, for the Columbia post office. Your knowledge of postal regulations and retail systems software are exemplary. Your ability to lead and mentor the sales and service associates are above reproach. Your candor, dedication and work ethic are of the highest caliber. Your leadership, Drive and willingness to go the extra mile for your customers reflect great credit upon yourself, the United States Postal Service and the United States of America."Candi spoke through tears as she said how very much she will miss her work family. She said it has been "the best job and the worst job" -- best because it allowed her not have to work two or three jobs to raise her two children and she didn't spend any time on "worst" because there was so much good. She said, "I'm gonna miss you every day -- today, my first day of retirement, I got up at five, got ready and actually thought about coming in to help out before this event, but I made myself get started on letting go." Standing between her real husband, Joseph Flowers, and her USPS team member who called himself her "work husband," she was read a certificate of "work divorce" by Bernie Dunn who said the certificate was making it final because of her retirement from duty. Words like "loyalty," "perseverance," "attitude," and "hard work" were used by her work family, who said they will miss her and will be calling on her when someone needs a sub -- and that may have been her finest compliment of the day.
