Jeanette Dwyer of Lake Waccamaw, North Carolina was elected to the National

Board of the National Rural Letter Carriers' Association at the 116th National

Convention in Orlando, Florida on September 9, 2022, to serve a three-year term as Executive Committeeman. This follows her appointment by President Ronnie Stutts on November 21, 2020 to fill the remainder of Executive Committeeman Johnny Miller’s unexpired term. She previously served as President of the National Rural Letter Carriers’ Association from 2011-2018, Vice President from 2008-2011, and as Executive Committeeman from 2002-2008.

Jeanette began her postal career in 1981 as a Designation 73 substitute and became a regular carrier in 1987. She has served this Association as both local steward and state steward, representing 3,548 routes in the State of North Carolina. Jeanette’s extensive labor relations background serves this Association well in her present position. She remains in touch with rural carriers at all levels so she can continue to be informed about the daily issues that confront our craft. She continues to have the strong support of her husband, Larry, son, Andy, and grandson, Bobby.

Jeanette will continue to work to represent the interest of all rural carriers with the dedication to improve our lot and the resolve to stand up for the true value of rural delivery by the best work force in the Postal Service.
