Letter Carrier Tara Marsh of Imlay City, MI, recently delivered the gift of life by donating a kidney to someone she has never met.
After Marsh saw a social media post about the person who needed a kidney, she inquired about becoming a potential donor.
Marsh, a mother of four, then took health, blood and tissue tests to determine if she was a match — and she was.
Upon learning the results, Marsh scheduled the surgery.
“Tara is an exceptional employee and has a heart of gold. She is always going above and beyond for all of her customers and neighbors,” said local Postmaster Jay Sucaet.
Marsh has recovered and returned to work.
Employees featured in “Heroes” receive letters of commendation through the Postmaster General Heroes’ Program. The nomination form is available on Blue.
