no idea what this is about, but i'm posting it here in case someone can
confirm, deny or elaborate on it...
"Artist and retired teacher Dan Fogelberg of Longmont attended with his
wife and son to honor the two strangers who saved his life in May.
Fogelberg had a sudden heart attack while cycling just north of Nelson
Road on 65th Street.
łI was basically dead on the ground,˛ said Fogelberg, 58, who does not
recall the incident and has problems now with his short term memory.
Gilbert Duran, a foreman who was driving by, and passing cyclist Jon
Tarkington both stopped and discovered Fogelberg not breathing and
without a pulse. They administered CPR for 14 minutes until emergency
personnel arrived.
Said Tarkington of his award: łItąs strange. I feel honored and at the
same time itąs reaffirming that the emergency medical services works and
works well.˛
łIt was an emotional experience,˛ Fogelberg said of his first meetings
earlier this year with the two men łwho made the difference between life
and death for me.˛
łThere isnąt anything bigger than someone giving you your life back,˛ he
said. łI owe them everything.˛
łI find myself humbled,˛ Duran said. łI think itąs beautiful that the
county takes the time to recognize what happens within the community
limits when a lot of things go unnoticed.˛
