About Me:
Born in Edmundston, New Brunswick Canada and now reside in Kodak, TN. I love to work on the radio and on June 1981 my dream came true. I have taken Broadcasting courses and Theology. After September 11th I had the desire to help others in their time of need. I wanted to join the Fire Dept. but did not have the right pull. Then in August 2007 my Pastor who was a Chaplain himself, asked me to be a chaplain so he may step down and concentrate more on his EMS and Fire Dept. duties. I have been there ever since and I love it!
I wanted to be with other people that would like to help the community and be of help to the victims of tragedy. I would like to bring them comfort in their time of need. "Serving those who serve!"
Why I Love Fire/EMS
To help those in need. "Serving those who serve!"
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Top issues I see and hear alot is the stress and pressure of the work that they do.
