Congratulations Mr. Harvey!

This award could not have found a harder working or more conciencous care giver to belong to.

Dick is a a bonafide shite magnet, having worked many of the toughest calls around- the 3 Yonkers firemen out the window comes to mind but that is just one. He did another major MVA that same night that never made any headlines. Still working Yonkers, still pulling OT, carrying gear up and people down and still doing all that with that heavy medicare card in his wallet

My hat is truly off to You, Brother Harvey.

(Unfortunately, Dick is even less tech saavy than I, so he will likely not see this unless someone shows him.)

When I had the pleasure of working alongside Dick, I found him to be one of the most enthusiastic, energetic, and conscientious medics I have encountered in a long time. His combination of maturity, curiosity, and strive for perfection continue to propel him along the path of perfecting his patient care and scene control capabilities. I have often invited him to work in our much less stressful system and he keeps insisting that he still needs more experience. Therefore, I applaud the committee’s decision and hope that future candidates for this award continue to display the qualities incumbent on such an important award.
