A Year of Service.
As we enter the final months of the year, I find myself reflecting not on the number of calls
we've answered, but on the people we've had the privilege to serve.Behind every dispatch was a person who needed help. A worried spouse. A frightened child. A
concerned neighbor. An aging parent. Every response reminded us that emergency medical
services is, above all else, about caring for people.
This year has also reminded me how fortunate we are to live in a community that values local
emergency medical care. Your attendance at fundraisers, your generous donations, your words
of encouragement, and your unwavering support make it possible for Minnesota Lake
Ambulance to continue serving this community with pride.
To our EMTs and EMRs, thank you for your professionalism, your compassion, and your
willingness to answer the call, regardless of the hour.
To your families, thank you for the sacrifices you make so your loved ones can serve.
And to the people of Minnesota Lake, thank you for your trust. Serving as your Ambulance
Director is one of the greatest honors of my life.
As we look toward the close of another year and the beginning of a new one, one thing will
remain unchanged. Whenever you need us, we'll be there—ready to provide compassionate
care with professionalism, respect, and kindness.
On behalf of everyone at Minnesota Lake Ambulance, thank you for allowing us to serve.
Respectfully,
— Director Radtke
