While on his way to a meeting at the South Florida District Office in Pembroke Pines, Palms Central Carrier Annex Manager, Customer Services Pablo Estupinan was proceeding onto the ramp at the Sawgrass Expressway when he observed a woman lying on the ground next to her vehicle parked on the shoulder of the highway.
“I couldn’t understand how drivers could see a person lying on the ground at such a busy highway exchange and drive right past her without stopping! So I pulled over to see if I could be of assistance' said Estupinan. "After speaking with the woman, I learned she had just had outpatient surgery and was trying to get home. I offered to call 911 and remained with her to ensure her safety until they arrived.”
“We never know when our how paths will cross with someone needing assistance, and there is an opportunity to demonstrate our civic duty," said West Palm Beach Postmaster Richard Fermo. "The U S Postal Service is proud of Pablo Estupinan and his act of kindness to a member of the general public.”
