Post Office Renamed In Honor Of Jimi Hendrix!!

A post office in Seattle, Washington has been renamed in honor of legendary artist Jimi Hendrix. Washington state officials voted unanimously a bill to rename a post office near Jimi Hendrix's hometown of Seattle. According to Rolling Stone, both of Washington's U.S. senators, Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell, supported Rep. Adam Smith's bill to rechristen Renton Highlands Post Office as the James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix Post Office. The post office in Renton is less than a mile from the Jimi Hendrix Memorial in the Greenwood Memorial Park cemetery, where the rock legend is buried. "I am honored to join in paying tribute to rock and roll icon and Seattle native Jimi Hendrix with the renaming of the Renton Highlands Post Office as the James Marshall 'Jimi' Hendrix Post Office Building," Rep. Smith said in a statement. "This designation will further celebrate Hendrix's deep connection to the Puget Sound region and help ensure that his creative legacy will be remembered by our community and inspire future generations."
