Today, I rise to recognize Yadkinville Letter Carrier Margaret Hutchens, who delivers mail in the Country Club Road area, the Booneville end of U.S. 601, and the Hamptonville side of Old U.S. 421 West, upon her induction into the prestigious Million Mile Club. Margaret received this high honor from the National Safety Council in recognition of having driven in the workplace for at least 30 years or 1 million miles without incurring a preventable motor vehicle accident. Let's think about the magnitude of travelling 1 million miles. That would be two trips to the moon and back. At the celebration honoring her accomplishment, Margaret thanked the customers on her route and said she knew God was looking out for her during those 30 years of accident-free driving. This honor illustrates the dedication to excellence that Margaret practices every day, and her customers are fortunate to have such a reliable and hardworking letter carrier. ____________________
