A Shout Out to Officer Maria Rodriguez

Yesterday, halfway across the Ben Franklin Bridge, I realized my purse (keys, wallet, etc) was still on the bench at the Camden PATCO station. I called the police number on the wall and a friendly transit worker also called it on on his radio. When I got back to Camden DRPA Officer Maria Rodriguez was there with my purse. She dutifully quizzed me on name and address to make sure it was mine. Nothing was missing.

A thousand thank yous to the people on the platform who must have seen the purse and either didn't bother it or handed it over to Officer Rodriguez, and to the officer herself for acting so quickly in retrieving it. This is a great example of the Camden kindness and efficiency.
