Sun City firefighters were just starting the process of establishing a peer support team when they suddenly needed one themselves.
“We were looking for in-house volunteers to be part of it when we lost one of our own,” said Jerry Thompson, a Sun City firefighter who has been working on the project.
When Shane Godbehere died last summer in station, the whole Sun City Fire and Medical Department was devastated, so much so that the peer support team was shelved while members turned to other resources to ease their grief.
