As we have processed this event over the last 24 hrs, we mourn with our Lutheran Family. Jake was an integral part of our partnership with Lutheran EMS when stationed in Fulton County. He was always the one to keep things light so he could boast that big grin of his. Jake was part of some of Fulton County’s darkest days and some bright ones
A quick story about the type or Paramedic Jake was. We had what would be considered a mass casualty accident when a school bus carrying 20+ students was struck and flipped on its side on US 31. As the first medic on scene Jake took charge of triage while we extricated one student pinned under a seat. Jake worked his tail off to make sure everyone was seen and got to the care facility they needed to go to. He worked to the literal point of exhaustion when he threw up on the side of the road and came back to the truck to say “I think everyone is in a truck and taken care of now.”
We will miss you Brother. We will take it from here!
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we publicly announce the passing of one of our own, Paramedic Shift Lead Jake Amos.
Jake had been a dedicated member of Lutheran EMS for the past ten years serving communities throughout our entire coverage area. He touched countless lives with compassion, with kindness, and unwavering commitment to all those that he served.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Jake's family, friends and colleagues during this incredibly difficult time.
Rest easy our dear brother Jake. We have it from here!
