Brain & Courtlin’s ‘First Responder Friday’ Honors Ian Gannon

Every Friday morning at 6:30 a.m., Brain & Courtlin pay tribute to an Eastern Iowa first responder during their 'First Responder Friday' segment! The weekly honoree receives a $25 gift card to Wild Hogs Saloon and Eatery in Walford and a $25 gift card to Honor and Respect.

Today's honoree is Ian Gannon, who was nominated by Amanda Gannon! The entry reads:

"This first responder is a very hard worker! Ian works long hours and days at a time before he has a day off. He is compassionate and always tries to do what he thinks is right for the patient. He works at three different places as a paramedic, and he truly cares about what he does."

We thank Ian for his service, dedication, and commitment to our community!
