MLGW Heroes Honored

L to R: Derrick Smith, Reginald Rouser, Antonon Morgan and Felix Freeman.

Memphis Light, Gas and Water Division honored four true heroes during its Board of Commissioners Meeting Wednesday. Derrick Smith, Reginald Rouser, Antonon Morgan and Felix Freeman helped to save a woman's life in December 2015.

All are members of a Gas Distribution crew that responded to a hit gas meter call at a residence in December. When they arrived, the crew was alerted by the homeowner that his wife may be suffering a heart attack and asked for help. They sprung into action, performing CPR for 16 minutes until an ambulance arrived.

Every day, MLGW employees go above and beyond to help customers in need. We salute and thank them for the difference they are making in our community.
