Montclair Heroes: Postal Worker ‘Takes Pride In What He Does’

MONTCLAIR, NJ — When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we're working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.

Do YOU have a local hero you'd like us to know about? Share their story here or read about other heroes from across New Jersey here.

This submission comes from Penny Borella, who nominated Angelo Sigalas, a mail carrier in Montclair who she said “takes pride in what he does.”

Name: Angelo Sigalas

State: NJ

Hometown: Montclair

Hero's job: Postal Service Mail Carrier

Reason for recognition: Angelo should be recognized because he is out there every day, rain or shine, heat and cold to make sure that those households he serves get their mail on a timely basis. He takes pride in what he does and in his fellow workers. He supports his community.

One thing to know: He treats his coworkers with respect and uses his voice to ensure that his community recognizes and also treats the USPS with that same respect.
