11/21/2025

Culpepper’s Cardiac Foundation placed #81 last night at Connect Church FL .

I was reached out by Dale Baker as their church wanted to have an AED at their church for the Safety of their congregation in case of a life-threatening emergency . One of their members , Anna Jackson ,had came to them inquiring about having one for their church as she had first hand along with her mom and brother went through what I had been through with her dad . Thank God they did end up reviving him but they know how important it is to have an AED at their establishment. .
The Church raised Funds and wrote a check last night to have one placed at there, Church.
It was a Blessing to place one here and the ones that we got to meet were all so nice as we gave our AED Demonstration. They all welcomed us and was eager to learn all about AED , CPR and Heart Awareness .

Eric Shimkus , a paramedic for over 24 years at Winter Haven Fire Department and who does this all as volunteer , gives a demonstration on the AED and Cpr . We also incorporate a Choking Device and Narcan to carry in case of an overdose .
All of these I added to our demonstration in hope to share the importance of saving a life .
We also incorporate a Fire Extinguisher to have as I wanted to add this in honor of Jolynn. She was a lil girl we loved and lost due to a car fire back in Nov of last year and we want to continue our love for her and her mom , Logan Deines with For The Love of JoLynn � 🙌❤️

The CCF Team were able to place an AED here in hope to help Save A Life 🙌
Thank you everyone and our Community so very much as without our community support we could not make this all happen .

Ernie got me in contact with the president of Whispering Pines, Ms Vanessa .
When we arrived last night we were very pleased to have a whole room there for our AED Demonstration. Everyone was so nice and welcomed us and was eager to learn all about AED , CPR and Heart Awareness .
