Dyer honors volunteer wellness instructor Peggy and firefighter Jeff for long service
Summary
Fire Chief Joe Martin and the board recognized Peggy for volunteering yoga classes for first responders and honored Jeff for 45 years of service to the department; both received public thanks and remarks at the meeting.
Fire Chief Joe Martin recognized Peggy, a resident and certified yoga instructor, for providing volunteer "yoga for first responders" classes and noted her fundraising work for Hoosier Burn Camp and ride-along participation. "She volunteers her time every single month ... She helps everybody with breath work and a better understanding of mind body connection," Martin said, thanking her for supporting department wellness.
The board also honored firefighter Jeff for 45 years of service. Board members praised his long tenure and Chief Martin presented a commemorative badge. Jeff reflected on his career and told the board, "It's an honor and a privilege to have served Dyer, especially since I was born and raised here and grew up here." The board then moved on to routine correspondence and other business.
