00:00We know the hard work and sacrifice they go through serving our community and keeping us safe.
00:06Let's honor another First Responder on 99.5 QYK.
00:11All right, Laura's on the phone with us today for First Responder Friday,
00:15and she's going to tell us about her husband, Brian.
00:17So, Laura, how does Brian serve our community?
00:20He works for the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office.
00:23He's been there for almost 20 years.
00:25Oh, wow.
00:25He was a past police officer in Anne Arundel County and also in the state of New York.
00:30And St. Petersburg as well when we first moved here to Florida in 2002.
00:35Nice.
00:35So, yeah.
00:36So he's been in law enforcement for, I'd say, about over 25 years now.
00:42Actually, closer to 30.
00:43So it sounds like he is really dedicated to this line of work.
00:47What do you think makes him so dedicated?
00:50What does he love about it?
00:51He loves helping the community and other people out there.
00:55He loves just showing up every day and seeing what he could do to serve the community.
01:02Well, definitely sounds like he's dedicated to that.
01:04When he's not serving our community, what are some things that you guys like to do as a couple?
01:09We are big into working out at the gym.
01:11Here we go.
01:12Let's get jacked.
01:13That's nice that you have that together.
01:14We're definitely a bunch of gym refs.
01:16And it's a benefit for him because it also helps him at his job.
01:19Yes, absolutely needs that.
01:21Well, you know, we always want to take a minute, too, to say thank you to you, Laura,
01:26because, you know, being married to a first responder, I mean, it's a tough task.
01:30I mean, you do have to, you know, sacrifice a lot as well.
01:34Absolutely.
01:36Yes.
01:36There's so many stories that I've heard.
01:39He's also earned a Combat Cross reward back in 2016.
01:44So I'm really proud of him for that.
01:46That is great, and as you should be.
01:49We want to do this.
01:50We'd like to give you $200 in Visa gift cards, one from our friends at Crown Buick GMC,
01:56the other one from our friends at Demesman and Dover.
01:58And we just want you to pass it along for us that we are so grateful for his service.
02:03Thank you so much for giving me the time and, you know, thinking of us.
02:08All right.
02:08If you want to nominate someone for First Responder Friday or Military Monday,
02:11those are the stories we love hearing.
