I was very moved by the Daily Sun coverage today of the memorial service at The Church On The Square for John Brucker. For those non-Villagers,
he was a EMT/ firefighter, injured and than passed away from his injuries.
It brought back the time I was working in the ER on the Trama Team. A group
of firefighters brought in a fallen "brother" who was also seriously injuried. It was heart wrench to see these grown men sob uncontrollably and plead for him to take a breath or show some sign of life. It is a memory I will carry with me always.
So, when a boot or a helment comes your way for a donation, please give.
These men and women put their lives on the line for us also.
RIP John Brucker
