Chris Booth and his mother Amy Booth, both of Warren, wait to ship Christmas packages Tuesday at the High Street NE Post Office in downtown Warren. Deadlines to mail items meant to arrive before Christmas are approaching rapidly.
WARREN Standing in line and waiting for her turn to purchase stamps and pick up boxes at the Warren Post Office on Tuesday was city resident Deanna White.
“My cousin lives in Indiana and she couldn’t get things” there, so White sent packages from Warren.
She said she noticed Tuesday was the last day for retail ground service packages to be sent in time to be received by Christmas.

The best present she’s received early couldn’t be shipped by the postal service, however: It’s her son, Isaiah, home for the holidays from a naval base in Louisiana, she said.
