Mary Cheney's partner, Heather Poe, worked at UPS in Denver for a good 20 years or so. I'm not sure exactly how long ago she left. She spent that time in the hub and on the preload as far as I know. I knew her in passing and from her help with locating stray packages in the building (you could always leave her a message and she would always find the darned thing) and she was very accessable, very friendly, and always acknowledged you.
Some of my good friends on the night side knew her well and everybody liked her. I remember even from the 1980's hearing that she was very sharp, had a hysterical sense of humor and she was a damned hard worker.
I wish them both the best of luck.
This photo of the two women was in our paper this morning along with the picture of the VP and his wife and the baby but perhaps it didn't make the rounds very far.
