David Mimm served as a paramedic in Montgomery for thirty years. He lost his life earlier this year while answering a call.
Mimm leaves behind a wife and three children who now have a big burden lifted off of them: a mortgage free home.
“It’s not even enough words to thank them for what they’re doing for us,” Elizabeth Mimm, David’s wife said.
54-year-old David Mimm, a paramedic for Care Ambulance Service, lost his life in March of 2020 when a car driving in Montgomery hit the ambulance he was riding in. At the time, he was caring for a patient experiencing a medical emergency. This, a day, Elizabeth says, impacted not only their family, but first responders throughout the River Region.
