Our Hero, Daddy

We are so proud of Damon. He got his second Life Saving Award tonight. It is a huge honor and an officer is lucky to get one award in a career and Damon has already earned two. He saved a 10 month old baby (who at the time was the same age as Trevor) from a fire. Fire nor medical had arrived due to radio failure throughout the valley. Damon took action, gave artificial respiration to the baby who stopped breathing on the way to the hospital. The medical staff said that if it were not for the action of Damon and his partner, the child would have certainly died. I don't know how he stays so calm and does his job so well. I think being a police officer is just in his blood, he was born to do this! Congrats Damon, on always doing your best and saving this sweet little baby. As always we are proud to have you protecting those that cannot protect themselves. We love you.


Damon with the under Sheriff at the awards ceremony. I'll frame the certificate and he has a pin to put on his uniform that says "Life Saving."

Trevor and Daddy. "In the arms of a father, a child first feels the strength of a hero." Thanks for being our hero Damon.The boys got to go in the police car. Shane was beyond excited! Trevor loved all the lights.

Shane thought he was going with Dad to get the bad buys. He could hardly control his excitement! He actually got to drive in the police car with Damon and he was on the look out for some bad guys! I think this being a police officer may be in Shane's blood too, we'll just have to see!
