Cobb Fire Official Wins State Award

He is the Georgia EMS Educator of the Year.

Georgia Emergency Medical Services has announced the winner of its EMS Educator of the Year award, and the recipient is from Cobb.

During Thursday's Georgia Emergency Medical Services Awards Banquet at the Georgia Public Safety Training Center in Forsyth, Cobb EMS Coordinator Larry Causby was recognized for contributing "significantly to EMS education at the community, regional, and/or state level," Cobb County Fire and Emergency Services spokeswoman Denell Boyd said.

"The person must be someone who not only does the job, but far exceeds the expectations of the employer and the community," she said in a statement. "The individual is an example of what a true role model/community hero is."
