Woman, 97, Gets Postcard After 27 Years

Oct 10, 8:05 PM (ET)



ANAMOSA, Iowa (AP) - Evelyn Greenawald just learned how slow "snail mail" can be. Last week she received a postcard from her daughter in Germany - 27 years after it was mailed.
At the time, her daughter Sheri was beginning her opera career in Germany. Sheri had sent a postcard telling her mother how she fell in love with Europe, that she would be in Paris soon and to "keep in touch."
Greenawald, 97, finally received the postcard on Wednesday after it was forwarded to her care center. She said she had exchanged several postcards with Sheri and was not aware she had not received a message.
The card had aged significantly by the time it reached Anamosa. Even a magnifying glass couldn't bring the postcard into focus; the date was somewhere between 1975 and 1978.
"This little card can tell a big story," Greenawald said.
The mother has yet to reach Sheri to tell her about the late delivery. Sheri, 57, lives in San Francisco.
