Royal Mail funeral procession gives postie a good send-off

A beloved postman who worked for Royal Mail for 24 years before his death was given a fitting send off as a fleet of red vans joined his funeral.

Colleagues drove 26 mail vans on Lee Woolley’s old postal route before his funeral in Bramcote, Notts.

The 48-year-old, who was due to become a father to a baby girl this December, died of cancer on July 2.
