Red Cross Community Safety and Security Award Winner

While on his daily mail route on July 1, 2008, US Postal Carrier Jim Smart stopped at a local resident's home with her mail. Jim immediately noticed the woman's mail had not been picked up for a few days, so he became concerned and asked neighbors if they had seen her. No one had, so he asked a neighbor to call the police department and ask them to check on the resident.

The police responded and found the woman, very weak and dehydrated, lodged under her vehicle. Now you can hear Smart's recount of saving a woman's life. For more info, visit http://www.redcrossinsewis.org/get-involved/brave-hearts. Video produced by Boettcher Media Group.
