As many of you may have read from one of our recent post or from his outstanding support from the community, our brother Al Thompson is fighting brain cancer, Al will never back down from a challenge, with this challenge comes a huge financial burden. In attempt to help with this, there will be a softball tournament fundraiser held at Toisnot Park in Wilson on October 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. All proceeds goes to help Al and his family. Details are in the picture below. Please contact Logan Ricks for more information

Yesterday we had the honor of surprising Al at his rehabilitation facility when Nash County EMS brought him home from ECU Health. If you dont know, Al served at Silver Lake Fire Department for over 24 years, even serving as captain during his time and still serves the citizens of Nash County to this day working for Nash County EMS. Al was recently diagnosed with an aggressive brain cancer after a tumor was found. He recently had a successful surgery to remove the tumor and was moved to his rehabilitation facility to start the recovery phase. Silver Lake was proud and honored to be one of the many agencies awaiting his arrival. Al has always put others first and now it’s time everyone returns the favor. Please keep Al and his family in your continued thoughts and prayers during this time. We are always here for you brother! You got this!
