We all know Samantha McCandless and her amazing family. She joined Ellis County EMS because of her pride and compassion for her community. She is on the local Fire Department, owns two businesses and never misses out on her kiddos events. Her family comes first and thats why we should be lucky to have her a part of our community. (By extension the community is her family as well.)

WHY IS SHE ON HERE TODAY?
Well this girl some how found more time in her crazy life and spent the last 6 months working to become an Advanced EMT so she could bring more skills, knowledge and education to her patients.

Without telling anyone she snuck off and took her AEMT test today and passed with flying colors.

We are so proud of you.

Also, you may want to thank Aaron and and the kids for their support.

Keep rocking it Sam!
