Page 20 The IN D E P E N D E N T, Ju n e 19, 2003 Letters coat. From page 3 fighters realized that they were dealing with one of their own. During the time they didn’t know who I was, I had a moment to watch how they treat a patient, and how they handle a scene. I was impressed. These people were nothing short of profession al as they evaluated my situation, the traffic situatipn and what was best for all. W hat really got to me was when each medic/firefighter realized whom I was, the look that came over them was a look of concern and fear like you have when a family m em ber is in dan ger or hurt. They say that em ergency per sonnel are a brotherhood, but un til you see those faces and see and hear that concern, you don’t realize how much of a brother hood it really is. I want to let everyone in this com m unity know how lucky you are to have these neighbors, friends and fam ily members who are willing to put it on the line for you any time, any- where just to make this a bet- Action Ads ia Volunteer Ambulance Associa tion, the Metro West Medics, and those motorists who stopped to help, I really do appreciate you all. God Bless You All. Ernie Sm ith, President Vernonia Volunteer Firefighters A ssociation ter/safer place to live. I would like to take a moment to thank all the fire and medic volunteers for their care and com passion, as well as the phone calls and flowers after I arrived . home from the hospital. Thanks to those m otorists who also stopped to help me. Vernonia is a small community that is often short on money to pay for the same benefits that the larger communities expect, so we have to rely on our volunteers to do these jobs. Each of us need to remember that the people who respond to our homes, car acci dents, fires, and other emergen cies are not paid other than through the fact that they know they helped. As a reminder, when you see a car with fire or medic plates following you with their flashers on, let them by, they may be on their way to your house.
