Today, along with Chief Humphries and many other Isle of Wight employees and friends, I had the privilege to attend the Virginia Fallen Firefighter and EMS memorial in Richmond, VA. It was truly a great honor to attend this service, where Robert “Bobby” W. Nelms was recognized for his faithful service to Fire and EMS. Bobby received his was recognized under the Virginia Line of Duty Act for his bravery and dedication to the Commonwealth of Virginia. We were proud to display our new Medic 61 and to release the dedication of this medic officially to Bobby.
