I would like to recognize the heart and commitment of the Valley Regional Fire Authority/EMS personnel who helped in a time of need and went above and beyond. I think sometimes people forget to say thank you for the little things that count.

In a busy snow disaster (last) Thursday, my mother got stuck trying to get up Lea Hill and also with Highway 18 being closed, she could not get my chronically ill daughter, Shiloh, home for critical medication and tube feeding.

Matt and his driver, whose name my daughter couldn’t remember, gave her a ride home up the hill so she could have the critical medications, etc., she needed.

I want to let them know they went above and beyond to help us, and I am totally grateful.

I want to recognize these two gentleman for the generosity of how such a simple act saved my daughter from going into major clusters of seizures without her meds.

I am totally indebted for your kindness, especially when I know how busy and crazy it is for the company in weather like this.

We are truly grateful.
