Being on the front lines of this pandemic, whether it’s working in a hospital or as a first responder, can be a thankless job.
That’s why a group of residents came together to support those who support us every day.
“It’s overwhelming anytime something like this happens and you realize, hey you didn’t forget about us,” said Montgomery EMA Director Christina Thornton.
Thursday, former Montgomery Mayor Todd Strange, his Chief of Staff Mac McLeod, and other former staffers and friends provided nearly 2,000 meals for firefighters, law enforcement, maintenance, sanitation and local hospital workers - an act of kindness that goes a long way.
“I’ve got 31 people total between our dispatch and our deputies that are out working patrol today,” said Capt. George Beaudry with the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office.
