It was an honor for JCHD EMS to serve our neighboring agency, Calhoun County EMS, and provide EMS coverage while their crews attended Daniel’s memorial service.

From every account, Daniel was an exceptional young man. He was dedicated, kind, and deeply respected by all. His passing is a profound loss to his family, friends, and the EMS community as a whole.

We were humbled to stand in service so that his colleagues could grieve, honor, and remember him. Our hearts remain with everyone at Calhoun County EMS and his family during this difficult time. 💙🚑
