What’s one thing you want everyone to know about your hero?:
My husband is a loving, caring, supportive man who will give you the shirt off his back. He has been with AMR for 21 years approximately. He loves his patients and caring for the elderly. He will go above and beyond to help someone in need. He always has a "picker-upper" sense of humor. When someone is feeling sad, depressed he will strive to break that saddened face and put a smile on.
