I've gone a little out of my way to deliver on the same date as the postmark before too so the people can say they got it EXACTLY xx years later
I was about to comment about the ethics of making the post office deliver the same piece of mail again years after the fact (without paying for another stamp), but then continued reading to see that you were doing the delivery yourself. Awesome, commendable, and hopefully an appreciated by the recipients still living at those addresses!
