Palomar Mountain Water is a water company that delivers water to residential areas, businesses, and companies. We are betting they had no clue they were hiring a hero when they took on 25-year-old Marco Perea, who lives in California. His quick-thinking led him to discover a woman who was in distress inside of her home.

Barbara White-Minischi is an 88-year-old woman who happens to be a favorite customer of Marco. Inside Edition reported that the delivery man usually yells “This is Marco” when he gets outside of the elderly lady’s apartment.

She usually responds with “Polo!” and then lets him in to deliver her water.

However, Marco did not hear anything when he announced himself this Monday, except for a very weak response. He immediately realized that something had to be wrong.

Barbara said that she was laying on her floor when she heard his voice outside of her door. She yelled for him to come in and help. Unfortunately, the door was locked and Barbara could not move to unlock it. Marco then hurried to call the police. 

The elderly lady had fallen on Sunday. Unable to get up and in immense pain, the lady stayed in the same spot until Marco arrived the next day. Marco called 911 and waited outside of her door until the fire department showed up to rescue Barbara.

She was then taken to the local hospital and given a thorough examination. Aside from some bumps and bruises, the lucky lady was okay- nothing was broken. Carrie White, her granddaughter, told the news that they are very grateful for the arrival of the water delivery man.

She said that it is rare to find a person who is so genuine. Barbara and Marco talked again after she arrived back home two days later. She calls him a hero, but Marco said he just happened to be where he needed to be at the right time. He was happy that he could help out in the situation.
