Two Ambulances and Jaws of Life Donated to Volunteer Fire Districts

The ambulances and the vision of Life Support were applauded by the many volunteers who turned out to celebrate the fully equipped ambulances. Sid Morrison and Michael Coe, two board of trustee's, dedicated and cut the ribbon.

The ambulances and the “Jaws of Life,” were dedicated at a news conference December 2, 2005 at the Roslyn home of Life Support trustee Bill Peare.

“We couldn't have done it without Life Support,” said Ray Risdon, retired Seattle firefighter who lives in Ronald where he volunteers as EMS Coordinator for both the District 1 and District 7 fire departments.

The “Jaws of Life” tools, which are used to extricate victims trapped in vehicles, were demonstrated at the news conference dedication before Life Support Board of Directors and Trustees, local and regional leaders, and the media.

Sid Morrison, former Director of Transportation for the State of Washington, told the gathering that the event was about saving lives through the enhancement of emergency medical service and providing a state of the art medical and care facility.
