William Leigh and Michael Neely, Springfield, IL


Two Springfield, IL, letter carriers recently assisted a diabetic customer who had collapsed in her yard. Michael Neely was delivering mail when he found the woman facedown in a flower bed. Unable to help her up on his own, he flagged down William Leigh, a fellow carrier passing by, and they enlisted the help of a neighbor to get the woman to her feet and into her home. She recovered from the incident.
