This week, David Brinkerhoff was driving on I85 through Cherokee County when he experienced something that he could never have expected. Traffic was slowing down, but a vehicle heading down the interstate did not slow down along with traffic and collided with his vehicle. As a volunteer firefighter, Mr. Brinkerhoff responds to several of these calls, but he never expected to be the one on the other end of this type of response. Before he had even come to enough to understand the gravity of the situation, he heard a voice.

"Cherokee County 911, what is your emergency?." That voice belonged to Melissa Walker, Mr. Brinkerhoff was experiencing a full blown anxiety attack in the wake of this accident. He says it was the calm instruction and the kindness of Melissa that helped him remain cognizant enough to get the medicine he needed to stabilize after the event.

He was so positively impacted by the response he received that he called back later to thank Melissa for how she helped him through the accident. He came by to meet her and express his gratitude as well.

Melissa has an incredibly important job within our county, and we are thankful that she is on our team to provide such a critical service in an exemplary fashion.
