I worked with Doug Santos on the City Ambulance and had him in the classroom at John Adams Community College. He was a great medic and great guy. I will always remember him as one of the best.

My condolences to the Santos family. May the peace from God comfort you as we await the time when no one will suffer from PTSD because swords will be turned into plowshares and they will study war no more.
