Charlie Hutson, who headed up Campbell County’s 911 Center for decades was honored by Powers. Hutson retired in December 2022 after an impressive career.

While on a fall trip to Florida in October 2022, a woman began choking at a restaurant where Raewyn Snodderly (above) was eating. Snodderly stepped in and performed the Heimlich on American singer and actress Patti LaBelle three times. After the third attempt, the food was dislodged, allowing her to breathe again.  Here is a related story.

Earlier this year, Robert Dial was on a Florida flight when the pilot announced to his passengers that a medical emergency was taking place on the plane. Dial stepped up and saved the passenger who was in peril. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED-11/06/2024-6AM)
