He is gonna be missed by all that knew him.

He is gonna be missed by all that knew him.

It is with profound sadness that we share news of the passing of GAH Ambulance Service Paramedic Les Donnelly, who dedicated over three decades of service to emergency medical care and the communities he served.

Les began his career with Gibson Area Hospital Ambulance Service in November 2005, initially working PRN while also serving full-time with Lifeline Ambulance Service in Bloomington. He later transitioned into a full-time role with Gibson when the service began providing paramedic coverage for the Eastern McLean County Ambulance Association (EMCAA).

Stationed in Colfax for many years, Les worked alongside EMCAA volunteers, building strong relationships and providing exceptional care to those in need. After approximately eight years, he continued his service out of the Saybrook-Arrowsmith Fire Station, adapting to changes within the system while remaining a steady and dependable presence.

During the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Les stepped into a vital leadership role, becoming an integral part of the ambulance service management team. Even while facing his own illness, he remained committed to his team, his profession, and the community he cared so deeply about.

Les passed away on April 30, 2026, after a courageous fight. His dedication, leadership, and compassion will not be forgotten.

We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, coworkers, and all those whose lives he touched.

Rest easy, Les. Your service and sacrifice will always be remembered.

The Storm Prediction Center is even highlighting the fire danger attributed to the passing low pressure increasing wind gusts today across the state. When the SPC highlights us for a fire danger, it’s a big deal. They don’t do it often for us.

Fast moving field fires are possible today. Report smoke immediately if seen.
