BEEBE RCA RECEIVES LETTER OF COMMENDATION




Beebe RCA Margie Dimas received this letter of commendation from a customer.

“On May 28, one of your employees certainly earned our gratitude for her extraordinary dedication to duty and concern for her customers. This sole purpose of this letter is to bring to your notice her dedication.  I do not know her last name but the first is, Margie.

We had medicine ordered and we were in much need of. On May 27, when it was not received in a timely manner, I contacted the pharmacy and found out it had been shipped via UPS.  Their website showed that on May 22, it was received by the Beebe Post Office and that delivery was attempted on Friday, May 23.  We did not know the medicine was at your office until contacting UPS.

My step father was killed by a teenage girl crossing the center line and hitting him head on.  We spent the day with the family and at the funeral.  We were only gone on May 23.

On Tuesday, May 27, after contacting your office we were told it would be delivered on Wednesday, May 28. I met the substitute carrier at the mail box.  She knew nothing of this. She was very concerned and apologized. She said “I will check at the end of my route, when I return to the office.  If I can find it, I will deliver it as soon as I get off work.” I told her she didn’t have to, but she did just that.  This took much of her own time, at a point that she must have been very tired and really wanting to be home.

I don’t know if the US Postal Service has any way to reward her for her this display of kindness and duty, but if it does, she deserves recognition.


She certainly has our gratitude.”

NORTH LITTLE ROCK CARRIER HELPS LOST CHILD


Phillip Mariner, a veteran letter carrier at NLR Main Office was returning from a park and loop when he noticed a 5 year old boy sitting on the sidewalk by his LLV, crying.   

Phillip approached the young boy and asked,” what’s wrong little fellow”?  The child explained that his mom did not pick him up and he did not know where he lived.  

Phillip comforted the child and called 911. While speaking with the 911 operator, Phillip explained who he was, where he was, and the dispatcher acknowledged that she had a patrol car close by and would be there in a few minutes.   

The police arrived to help and comforted the young boy explaining they would find his mom.  The family had recently moved and the boy did not recognize the area.  

It was later explained to Phillip, by the police, that the boy’s family lived about 3 miles from where Phillip had first found him.
