Kudos to Lake police

With two responding Lake fire fighters, we could have carried the patient up the hill on a stretcher, slogging through the deep snow. However, Lake Officer Tony Abbott also responded to the EMS call. While we assessed the patient and started treatment, Abbott contacted an Lake Monticello Owners’ Association pickup with a plow, to plow the driveway down the hill so the ambulance could reach the house. While the plow was on its way, Officer Abbott shoveled the deep snow off the porch and the walkway to the driveway. Many thanks to the LMOA driver who rapidly responded and plowed the driveway, expediting patient transport to the hospital. Kudos to Abbott, and all of Lake Monticello’s Finest, who provide such community-oriented service.
