It’s always uplifting to hear words of gratitude from someone we were able to help — especially when time is critical. Captain Jim Ingledue and MFF Francisco Medina truly went above and beyond, coming to the rescue for Ms. Thames and her mother on her such an important day as her mother's graduation from Regent University. Captain Ingledue and MFF Medina were true heroes who saved the day through their kindness, professionalism, and commitment to service. Thank you both for once again exemplifying the “VBFD Way!”
