Fair warning: this one's a real tear-jerker.
A young boy who posted a birthday card to his dad "in heaven" has received a touching reply form the Royal Mail postal service in the UK.
Jase, 7, got the confirmation letter that his special mail for his father had arrived safely through the "difficult" journey.
While we've been delivering your post, we became aware of some concerns. So I just wanted to take this opportunity to contact you about how we succeeded in the delivery of your letter, to your dad in heaven. This was a difficult challenge avoiding stars and other galactic objects on route to heaven. However please be assured that this particular important item of mail has been delivered. Royal Mail's priority is to get our customers' mail delivered safely. I know how important your mail is to you. I will continue to do all I can to ensure delivery to heaven safely.- Royal Mail
Jase had posted an envelope with the following handwritten message: "Mr Postman can you take this to heaven for my dad's birthday thanks".
Jase's mum Teri posted about the special mail on Facebook, thanking the Royal Mail for "restoring (her) faith in humanity".
A few weeks ago my 7 year old son posted this card to his dad in heaven and today he got a lovely reply from the postman 😊 I actually cannot state how emotional he is knowing his dad got his card... you didn’t have to make the effort to do this you could have just ignored it but the fact that yous have made the effort for a little boy you’ve never met is such a lovely thing to do Royal Mail you’ve just restored my faith in humanity and thank you it honestly means the world to him please share this so all the staff at Royal Mail know just how greatful we are 💙 thanks and merry Christmas x- Teri's statement
