— from Sigrid Mather —

“Thank you” doesn’t adequately convey my gratitude to our community EMTs who so consistently and professionally answer our calls for help. Over the years they have responded to my 911 calls quickly, always allaying my fears with calm and reassurance.

I’ve not found an adequate way to tell them how much their care means to me. Thanks and cookies don’t seem like enough. Their answer to my thanks is always “That’s what we’re here for”.

I can’t imagine where we would be medically without their individual commitments to our wellbeing. Once again, Thank You!
