Our recent post about Jake Marquardt was not the only time one of our field employees has saved someone’s life. Nearly one year ago, another one of our operators, Terry Dahm, took action when he noticed smoke pouring from a nearby house.
After dialing 911, Terry rushed into the home where he a found a man sleeping inside. Terry woke the man up and got him out of the building before the situation turned tragic. The man had escaped wearing only a pair of shorts, so Terry even went to a nearby gas station and bought him a shirt.
We are proud to have people like Jake Marquardt and Terry Dahm on our team. Their actions reflect the culture of safety we’ve built at Five Star, one that inspires our people to carry those values with them both in the field and off.
