Mail for the dead

An interesting Washington Post story today about a Post Office in Japan that distributes mail intended for the dead...including dead pets:

"The Missing Post Office is on the island of Awashima, one of thousands in the Seto Inland Sea, which sits between Japan’s main southern islands."

One example: 

"To Ron [the dog] in heaven

​​Hi, are you doing well?

​​Are you going on a lot of walks?

​​Were you able to see Dad?

​​If you do, make sure you get a lot of sausages from him.

​​See you again someday, and be well."
