Hero

Lewisville, TX, Letter Carrier Devante Lacy (left) received the PMG Hero Award from Postmaster Thomas Alonzo (right).  He spotted an elderly gentleman in distress while delivering Amazon packages on Sunday.  Lacy was next door delivering a package when he noticed an elderly gentleman laying in the grass near the pavement.  The elderly gentleman was in the process of mowing his lawn and suffered a stroke. With the help of a neighbor, he picked up the gentleman and took him into his house.  Emergency responders were contacted and the man has made a full recovery.  Lacy remarked, “I enjoy helping people and having a job where everyone likes you.”  He played professional baseball for the St. Louis Cardinals before becoming a Mail Carrier.
