Sapulpa’s first black postal carrier set to retire

Milton Gray hung up his mailbag Friday, May 26, 2023, after delivering mail in Sapulpa for a quarter of a century, though his official retirement date is May 31.

When asked what made him decide to go to work for the United States Postal Service, Milton said he was working for a fiberglass fabrication facility in Sand Spring and decided to make a career change, so he took the Postal Service test, but he assumed he was rejected.
