November 13, 2025 — Earlier this week, the crew at Citrus County Fire Rescue’s Station 20 in Pine Ridge received a touching surprise when a former patient stopped by to personally thank the team who responded to her recent medical emergency. Her visit brought warm smiles, hugs, and even a custom cake—an expression of gratitude that deeply moved the firefighters and paramedics who helped her.
Though the crews often say they are “just doing their job,” moments like this highlight the profound impact their work has on the lives of those they serve. Seeing the patient healthy and doing well was a meaningful reminder of why they do what they do.
Rescue 20 was staffed by Paramedic Chad Davis and EMT Celeste Avant, who arrived proudly sporting her baby bump.
Engine 20 was represented by Captain/EMT Chris Caravetto (not pictured), Driver Engineer/Paramedic William Hammond (not pictured), and Firefighter/EMT Morgan Bakulski.
CCFR extends its appreciation to the citizen for sharing her gratitude and to the dedicated Station 20 crew for their compassionate care and professionalism.
