Lowell has spent the last 30 years doing what he calls \u201credistributing happiness\u201d to others across the United States by connecting the past to the present with postcards.<\/p><h3>A unique idea turns into a hobby<\/h3><p>Lowell\u2019s idea began in an antique store in Minnesota when he noticed a postcard from Pennsylvania with a picture of a church on it, dated in 1907. On a whim, he bought the card and sent it back to the address listed on it. Little did he know that the church would be celebrating its one-hundredth anniversary and posted the card for everyone to see.<\/p><p>To his surprise, the church also responded back to him graciously with kind words of thanks. Thereafter, he decided to continue with this practice, to bring happiness to as many good folks as he could. \u201cThe world needs positivity and joy and I\u2019m trying to provide a little of it,\u201d he explained.<\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"blog-80 aligncenter wp-image-3980 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/the-oaks-at-inglewood\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2022\/03\/inglewood_Lowell-Joerg.jpeg\" alt=\"The Oaks at Inglewood | Lowell Joerg\" width=\"512\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/the-oaks-at-inglewood\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2022\/03\/inglewood_Lowell-Joerg.jpeg 512w, https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/the-oaks-at-inglewood\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2022\/03\/inglewood_Lowell-Joerg-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p><h3>A kind gesture brings happiness<\/h3><p>During the 30 years that Lowell has been collecting old postcards and sending them back to their \u201chomes,\u201d he\u2019s received a response back from about one in 10 of them. He never expects responses as he does this just for fun and to keep his mind sharp but is delighted when respondents write him back; some send notes of thanks, souvenirs, ball caps, t-shirts, cups, or even reimburse his costs. These replies are priceless and in return, bring Lowell happiness. He\u2019s so appreciative of each response.<\/p><p>As one would imagine, this hobby comes with costs for postage, postcards, time spent, and fuel to travel to search to find \u201cthe good stuff.\u201d Lowell had to make some investments financially, but it\u2019s not about that for him. The activity brings joy to both him and the receiver and he feels that\u2019s worth every penny.<\/p><p>Operation Postcard<\/p><p>As Lowell approaches his 94th birthday, he\u2019s not able to get out to antique stores as often as he\u2019d like and is limited to the internet for purchasing his postcards. Postcard collecting has now become the third most popular hobby in the United States with many reputable dealers on the internet. However, prices have skyrocketed for those with real photos. One-of-a-kind cards are harder to find and more expensive.<\/p><p>Due to the rising costs of his hobby, pandemic shutdowns, and his advancing age, Lowell has less opportunity to spread joy with his unique idea. \u201cOperation Postcard\u201d seeks to help Lowell maintain his practice of spreading goodwill and happiness. Lowell is seeking donations of used or unused postcards dated before the year 1935. If you would like to help him carry on his endeavors, please send postcards or stamps:<\/p><p><strong>Lowell Joerg<\/strong><br \/><strong>The Oaks at Inglewood<\/strong><br \/><strong>6725 Inglewood Ave.<\/strong><br \/><strong>Stockton, CA 95207<\/strong><\/p><p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/the-oaks-at-inglewood\/\">The Oaks at Inglewood<\/a>, you\u2019re free to pursue your passions and hobbies.
