What an incredible outcome! Thank you for coming by Gary.
So proud of our Brother and Sisters and grateful for the quick response of our PFPD family.

On April 25, 2025, Gary went into cardiac arrest.

Post Falls Police Department officers arrived first and immediately began CPR, with Kootenai County Fire & Rescue crews arriving shortly after to continue his care.

Today, Gary is here because of the quick actions of those first responders and the strong partnership between our agencies.

Early CPR saves lives. Strong partnerships save lives.

We’re grateful to work alongside PFPD every day to serve our community — and even more grateful when we get to see outcomes like Gary’s. ❤️

Today, we channel that same spirit into standing beside first responder families and guiding the next generation.

True strength is built through community, connection, and facing hardships together.
