After many years of keeping John Green's phone number on their refrigerator for emergencies, the citizens of Yorktown honored him on Sunday, December 8, at the Yorktown fire station for his two decades of service in Yorktown Emergency Medical Services (YEMS). Green looks forward to a lot of off-duty time, camping with friends and family.
His contributions to the DeWitt community include serving with the Nordheim Volunteer Fire Department and advocating for public education as a trustee on the Nordheim Independent School District board for twenty years.
Public service runs strongly in Green. He’s “been a volunteer since age 15 at Manchaca Volunteer Fire Department in Austin,” Green said.
