“I Was Heartbroken” UPS Driver Receives Special Farewell Note From Dog With Cancer

Share With Your Friends!

A UPS driver in Pittsburgh, John Keffer, developed a special bond with a dog on his delivery route, and recently discovered the profound impact their friendship had on both of them. It all began when John noticed fellow drivers giving out dog treats during deliveries. Inspired, he adopted the practice, making it a daily routine. What started with a small bag of treats soon grew to a larger supply, with John happily distributing snacks to the dogs he encountered along his route.

One such dog was Rosie, a cherished pooch who eagerly awaited John’s visits. Rosie knew a treat awaited her each time he arrived. Over time, she became one of the many pets who brought joy to John’s day. However, one day was different. Upon reaching Rosie’s home, John found a box of Milk-Bone treats and a heartfelt note. The note delivered the sad news that Rosie, a beloved 10-year-old dog, had passed away due to cancer. CONTINUE BELOW

“Thank you for all the years of delivering packages with a Milk-Bone for Rosie. She always looked forward to your visits. Unfortunately, Rosie had to be put down recently due to cancer… Please accept this gift and continue bringing happiness to other dogs on your route.”

John was deeply touched by the message. The loss of Rosie hit him hard, as their bond had become something truly special. Delivering packages to Rosie had not just been a routine task but a cherished part of their connection. CONTINUE BELOW

“When I received the box of Milk-Bones and read the note, I was devastated. It really affected me,” John shared. “When you deliver to someone regularly, you get to know their ‘fur babies.’ Even though it’s just a brief moment, they leave a lasting impression on your heart.”

Despite Rosie’s passing, her memory lived on through John and the treats he continued to offer to other dogs along his route. The simple act of sharing a treat had forged lasting connections, and John remained dedicated to brightening the day of every dog he encountered. CONTINUE BELOW
