Saturday, March 25. 2017

Four members (Elaine French, Charlotte Flohl, Fred Miller & Phil Lai-Len) of the Liberty Corner First Aid Squad, attended the funeral of Yadira Arroyo, the FDNY EMT, who was recently killed in the line of duty in the Bronx New York.

The members drove to the Meadowlands to convoy with other New Jersey EMS units. They stood at attention, saluting the ambulance carrying EMT Arroyo as it passed.

It was a long but stirring day. There was hardly a dry eye in the street when the bagpipers marched by, or when the bugler played taps.

It was a pleasure for the Liberty Corner First Aid Squad members to honor a fellow EMT who devoted her life to service the people of her city.
