He used his map and his knowledge of the city to help her find her way back to her family. The little girl was so grateful to Mr. ZIP for helping her, and she promised to always include the ZIP Code on her mailings.

He was a true friend to the people of the United States, and he will always be remembered for his kind heart and helpful spirit.
