Our thoughts and prayers are with the friends and family of Nash County EMS Director, Dale Griffin.

Dale was a true leader, always there to help on a call, mentoring the next generation of EMS, or if you just needed a shoulder to lean on.

He will be missed deeply. Thank you for your service sir, we will take it from here.
