National EMS Memorial Service Honoree

	Michael J. Sciutto Leamon's Ambulance Lena, Illinois

At the age of 14, Mike began working the radios for Cedarville Fire Department, and became an active firefighter and an EMT-A at the age of 18.

He received his certification as a firefighter II in 1995 and certification as a paramedic during the month of his death. Mike died on December 18, 1995, after his truck ran off the road and struck an embankment.

Ironically, he was answering a call to Leamon's Ambulance for emergency care for a cardiac patient. Although Mike was only 24 when he died, friends remember his dedication to the community and his willingness to help in times of need.

Honored 1996
