We know the hard work and sacrifice they go through serving our community and keeping us safe.
00:06
Let's honor another First Responder on 99.5 QYK.
00:11
It is First Responder Friday. We've got Erin on the phone who is honoring her son today.
00:16
Good morning, Erin. How are you?
00:18
Good morning. I'm doing great. Thank you.
00:20
Let's talk about your son, Robert. Tell us how he serves our community as a First Responder.
00:24
Well, Bobby has been a firefighter and he works in Seminole County.
00:30
And he's been one for about six years now.
00:33
Now, is this something that he has followed in somebody else's footsteps in the family?
00:36
Or is this something that just he wanted to do?
00:38
No, actually, he was a ballplayer in college and was looking for that type of camaraderie.
00:44
Oh, OK.
00:45
With other people. And he found that becoming a firefighter.
00:50
I love that. I mean, they're like a crew.
00:52
I mean, they're like brothers and sisters. They take care of each other. That's great.
00:57
Yes, they do.
00:57
So what does he tell you that he loves most about his job?
01:01
Probably the friendships that he's made with the other firefighters and the chance to be able to help people.
01:07
He says, and it's funny because most people think that firefighters fight lots of fires.
01:12
And actually, what they mostly do is go on medical calls and help people that have either fallen or gotten hurt or accidents.
01:20
Things like that.
01:21
How do you feel about it, Mom?
01:22
I know you're proud of him, but do you worry from time to time?
01:25
I worry all the time.
01:27
I'm, you know, his brother's also was in the army and just got out himself.
01:31
So I've been worrying since, what is that Morgan Wallen song, since 1993?
01:40
What a reference.
01:41
I know. Every time I hear that song, I think of both my kids.
01:45
Well, we appreciate both your kids and we appreciate you as well.
01:49
And did we hear that Robert just had a baby?
01:52
Yes, they had their first son, my first grandchild, yesterday around 435 o'clock.
01:59
Let's go! Look at that!
02:01
Congratulations!
02:03
The family is getting bigger.
02:05
The family is getting bigger.
02:07
Yep. Seven pounds, 15 ounces.
02:09
He's a bruiser.
02:09
Oh, boy. Mama and baby doing good then, right?
02:13
They're doing wonderful. I get to see them this afternoon after school.
02:16
Oh, yay!
02:17
That's great.
02:18
Well, listen, we want to do this for Robert. We're so grateful for his service to our community.
02:22
We want to give him $200 in gift cards.
02:25
One from our friends at Crown Buick GMC and the other one from our friends at Demesman and Dover.
02:30
Small way for us to say thank you.
02:32
That is awesome. Now I'm crying. Thank you so, so much.
02:35
He's got a lot of diapers to buy, and probably some baby food, so you're going to need it.
02:41
Thank you so much. I love all of you. I listen to you every morning.
02:45
Well, we appreciate you so much. Hang on for me, okay?
02:48
Well, if you want to nominate someone for First Responder Friday or Military Monday, you just go to 99.5QIK.com.
02:55
We'll see you next time.
