Family Thanks First Responders for Quick Reaction

September 19, 2020 - Yesterday afternoon, [September 18], there was an accident in which my brother was working on his truck and it rolled over on him. Upon calling 911, within minutes, [and I mean minutes], there were at least 10 first responders on the scene including an ambulance, Center FD, VFD, West Shelby VFD, and Shelby S.O. 

It gives us all here in Shelby County a real peace of mind to know that our First Responders are here when we need them. I would sincerely like to thank them for their service to our community. If you see one, you thank them too.
