HERO RECOGNITION-
Jeffrey Ballenger (Belleville)
Sandy Korobey writes, "I would like to recognize a hero. Our mailman came to my door a few weeks ago and told me that the gentleman across the street had not gotten his mail for 4 days. I have known him for 30 plus years and knew something was wrong. I then called a good friend and we went over pounded pounded with no sign of him. We tried for 15 minutes to get in and we just couldn't get in so it was decided to break out the window and climb through the window and there he was on the bathroom floor he had had a stroke for 4 days. He is a 93-year-old man and he lived because our mailman saved his life! I would love to see this man get the recognition that he's so well deserves. He certainly is a hero he is mailman for 1701 Mascoutah ave Belleville Avenue in Belleville. Thank you!"
