Deanna Addis said letters and a check were stolen from her mailbox on the 2700 block of Northwest First Place.

“So now I’m going to have to redo them, but I almost feel like it was tainted,” Addis said. “Because it was my special words, a journey that I had been through written in this card to send to her and give her uplifting — someone else read it before her and that’s not what it’s supposed to be.”

Stealing mail is a federal crime, and additional officers will be stationed around Deanna’s neighborhood, according to police.
