Prayers for the members of LCVFD and the family of Chief Devotie. Chief and his department have been a vital part of our emergency medical response system throughout the years. He will be missed.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to John David’s family. John was dedicated paramedic for JCEMS for many years touching countless lives before continuing to serve his community as a LEO. Rest easy brother.

It is with a heavy heart to announce the passing of Patrolman John David Holland. John passed away at Fort Sanders Hospital on 04/02/2026 after having a triple bypass. John had been in emergency service for over 30 years in Jefferson County and came to work with the Rutledge Police Department last April. We ask for prayers for his family and children. Ptl. John David Holland will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

Thank you for your service.
