Rural Carrier Associate Christopher Williams was recently delivering mail in Lewisburg, KY, when he saw an older man passed out in a driveway.
The customer’s pacemaker had malfunctioned, and his wife was in the house unaware of what had happened.
Williams revived the man and propped him up against a car.
The Postal Service employee then alerted the customer’s wife and called 911.
“Christopher is an all-around good guy and would do anything to help anyone,” said Dawn Ward, the local postmaster.
The customer spent six days in the hospital before returning home.
