  Mr. JOLLY. Mr. Speaker, I would like to recognize Jeremy Tinter and 
Nicholas Eberhardt who received the American Ambulance Association's 
Stars of Life Award. The National Award recognizes those professionals 
with outstanding service and dedication.
  Mr. Tinter is a paramedic and a clinical services coordinator. He 
oversees employee orientation and acts as the field training officer at 
Sunstar Paramedics. He has overhauled the orientation process to 
increase the capstone testing rates and onboard new paramedics more 
efficiently.
  Mr. Eberhardt is an emergency medical technician who has shown great 
leadership skills by mentoring new employees and providing excellent 
patient care. He was also a part of the team that started the 
Paramedics Plus' operation in South Dakota. He has previously received 
the Sunstar Paramedics' Care Plus award.
  Mr. Speaker, I want to recognize these two exceptional individuals 
for the hard work and care they provide to Pinellas County. They give 
their time to help members of our community in life threatening 
incidents. I ask that this body join me in recognizing their efforts.
