SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 76
	WHEREAS, Emergency medical technician Kavin Heugatter of
	the Wise County Office of Emergency Management has been named the
	recipient of a Life Saving Medal in recognition of his role in
	providing medical assistance to two Fort Worth residents
	involved in a vehicle accident; and
	WHEREAS, On February 2, 2022, Kavin Heugatter responded to
	a traffic incident in which a car lost control on an iced-over
	bridge and plunged into the Trinity River; the passenger was
	pulled from the vehicle by a witness, and the driver remained
	trapped in the car when it sank; a Wise County swift water
	technician swam into the frigid river and extracted the man from
	the vehicle; Mr. Heugatter helped provide lifesaving assistance
	on the shore, and the man rescued from the submerged car was
	transported to a hospital and is expected to fully recover; and
	WHEREAS, Every day, the first responders of Texas are
	called to the aid of individuals in need, and through his swift
	and decisive action in this critical situation, Kavin Heugatter
	upheld the highest standards of his profession and helped to save
	the life of a fellow citizen; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th
	Legislature, hereby congratulate Kavin Heugatter of the Wise
	County Office of Emergency Management on his receipt of a Life
	Saving Medal and extend to him sincere best wishes for the
	future; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
	prepared for Mr. Heugatter as an expression of high regard from
	the Texas Senate.
