Background:

Former U.S. Senator Bob Krueger lived an extraordinary life of service to the New Braunfels community, the state of Texas, and the world. He was a human rights advocate, a U.S. Ambassador, a true statesman and an outstanding public servant. To the New Braunfels community, he was their hometown hero and the city’s favorite political son. When not traveling, his daily routine included a morning trip to the post office to buy stamps, mail a letter or a package, and visit. He never met a stranger. The dedication of his neighborhood post office in his honor is a fitting tribute in recognition of his lifetime service to New Braunfels and America.

This event is free and open to the public.

Overseen by a bipartisan Board of Governors, the Postal Service is implementing a 10-year transformation plan, Delivering for America, to modernize the postal network, restore long-term financial sustainability, dramatically improve service across all mail and shipping categories, and maintain the organization as one of America’s most valued and trusted brands.

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
