98.1 KHAK First Responder Friday Honors Matt Wieser
Every Friday morning at 6:30 a.m., 98.1 KHAK's Brain & Courtlin pay tribute to an Eastern Iowa first responder during our '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 we're honoring Matt Wieser, who was nominated anonymously! The entry reads:
"Not only does Matt work a full-time job, but he is also a full-time dad, in addition to the many side jobs he takes on to provide for his family. He serves as a lieutenant on Manchester's fire department and works as an EMT at RMC. He helps teach Firefighter 1 classes, and on top of that, he is a reserve deputy for Delaware County. He is always willing to assist others and help them learn. He has been an EMT for 15 years, has served on the fire department for over 20 years, and has been a reserve deputy for 14 years. He is truly a selfless hero who brings so much to the community of Manchester."
Congratulations to Matt! We thank you for your dedication and service to our community!
