Union-Times Features the Minnesota State EMS Line of Duty Death Memorial

The Minnesota State EMS Line of Duty Death Memorial Foundation was recently featured in the Union-Times, highlighting the continued effort to establish a permanent memorial honoring EMS professionals who have died in the line of duty.

The article, “Local Paramedic Fights for EMS Memorial Honoring Fallen Responders,” shares the story behind the project, the progress made to date, and the work still ahead. It reflects not just one individual’s efforts, but the collective commitment of volunteers, supporters, and the broader EMS community working to ensure EMS is recognized alongside law enforcement and fire service at the Minnesota State Capitol.

This memorial represents more than a structure. It is a place of reflection, recognition, and respect—dedicated to those who answered the call and made the ultimate sacrifice.

While recent attention has brought increased visibility to the project, the foundation remains grounded in its mission and driven by the people behind it. Every step forward is the result of continued volunteer effort and community support.
