We are very grateful that David Gilliam, Captain Dan Huffman, Deputy Dan Yarnell, Adult Ed Fire Instructor PJ Titus, & Fire Student Austin Walker were on the scene & acted quickly. Their swift actions played a large role in the survival of this student before EMS arrived. These gentlemen were all recognized this morning by the Delaware County Commissioners & EMS.
