00:00No one understands the dedication and sacrifice it takes to be a first responder better than their loved ones.
00:06Tampa Bay's Morning Crew would like to honor someone in our community.
00:09It's First Responder Friday.
00:11Brought to you by our friends from Crown Buick GMC on 99.5 QYK.
00:17Jessica's on the phone with us today.
00:19She is honoring her friend Allison.
00:21Good morning, Jessica. How you doing?
00:23I'm good.
00:24We appreciate you reaching out to us.
00:25So tell us about your friend Allison.
00:27What does she do as a first responder?
00:28Um, she currently works for the Sheriff's Department in Pinoff County.
00:34And, um, she has gotten awards for putting herself on the line in the shootings.
00:42And she is a retired Army vet.
00:46Oh, wow.
00:47And she's just great.
00:48Oh, my gosh.
00:49How long have y'all been friends?
00:51Um, she is actually married to my brother.
00:54Um, they've been married for about a year now, but I've known her for quite a few.
00:59Okay.
00:59So your friend and your sister-in-law, how do they meet?
01:02They both grew up here and didn't know each other.
01:05And both went into the Army and ended up both being stationed in Colorado.
01:12And they met there and they actually both grew up right here.
01:16Well, how cool is that?
01:16Well, tell us about Allison when she's not working, when you guys are hanging out and
01:21doing stuff.
01:22I mean, just the kind of person she is.
01:24She's great.
01:25She's a mom, really.
01:26That takes up a lot of her time.
01:28She has a one-year-old.
01:29So most of her time is spent doing mom stuff.
01:32And every time we're doing something, it's baby friendly.
01:36Aw, I love that.
01:38You got to love that being an aunt, right?
01:40Yeah.
01:40He's the cutest thing.
01:42Well, listen, we can't say thank you enough for telling us about Allison.
01:45Please let her know that we are so thankful for what she does in our community.
01:49And also what your brother and her have done for our country as well.
01:53I mean, I love hearing about that.
01:55We want to do this.
01:56We want to give you a $100 Visa gift card from our friends at Crown Buick GMC to pass on
02:01to Allison for us, Jessica.
02:03And thank you so much for your time today.
02:05Oh, thank you.
02:06I will let her know.
02:08Please do.
02:09And love to you and your family.
02:11And thank you all so much.
02:13You got it.
02:13Hang on for me.
02:14Well, you hear these every Friday.
02:15And we want to hear your story.
02:17Do you have someone in your life that is a first responder?
02:19Someone that you admire?
02:20A relative?
02:21A friend?
02:21A child?
02:22Whoever it is that you want to spotlight, we want to hear from you.
02:25And you can nominate someone right now at 995QIK.com for First Responder Friday.
