Gary Rath

In February of 2021, I decided to seek out an address for Gary Rath. I discovered that he was a State Farm insurance agent and I found an address to his office, so I sent him my card and a letter.

Unfortunately, it turned out that the address was incorrect. Eleven days later I got a "return to sender" notice. Apparently, he moved to a different location and my letter could not be forwarded.

I found his new business address, changed the date on my letter, and re-sent it.

Nine days later my card came back signed.
