Tuesday, September 11th, 2001.
Is a day that all Americans pay respects to honor those who lost their life on this tragic day.
Our team at Upstate EMS would like to pay homage to every American who lost their life and too the first responders who answered the call.
To be a first responder is to be the person who run towards the threat and be the HOPE to those who may have none. We acknowledge the sacrifice and the selflessness this career demands.
"No day shall erase you from the memory of time." - Virgil
Never Forget. 🇺🇸
