                 HONORING THE SERVICE OF KELLIE RUETSCH

                            HON. MIKE CAREY

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, November 7, 2023

  Mr. CAREY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the service of Kellie 
Ruetsch, a constituent from Plain City, Ohio.
  Kellie is a regional operations manager for Superior Air-Ground 
Ambulance Service of Ohio Inc. She was recently recognized as one of 
Superior Ambulance's ``Stars of Life.'' Every year, Superior Ambulance 
recognizes a handful of its EMTs for their exceptional leadership 
skills. An EMT since 1997, Kellie has devoted her life to helping 
others.
  Apart from being an EMT, Kellie is also a paramedic and a 
firefighter. Despite volunteering countless hours to her community and 
raising two children, Kellie has also found time to advance her skills 
and professional growth.
  In 2016, Kellie was offered a leadership position in which she 
immediately excelled. In 2017, Kellie obtained her EMS instructor 
license and completed Ambulance Service Manager training in 2022. 
Kellie's colleagues and superiors say, that she's someone who leads by 
example, never seeing a task as below her station.
  Plain City and central Ohio are better places to live because of 
people like Kellie Ruetsch. I salute her service to our community.
