I am sorry to hear about Mayhlon. I am Marvin’s first cousin and about 10 years older than Mayhlon. I saw Mayhlon quite often when he was very young. He with his parents would come out to our farm often often on Sunday afternoons and play cards. I saw Arlene at her aunts (Irene Berger) funeral and would send her a note if I had her name and address. That might have been the last time I saw Mayhlon.
Poll: REGIONS FOR AMBULANCE SERVICE? A legislative task force is considering a plan to organize South Dakota’s ambulance services into eight to 14 regions, potentially with state oversight and funding to help keep emergency medical services sustainable. The proposal comes as many ambulance services face financial challenges, low reimbursement rates and an aging, often volunteer workforce. Lawmakers say the goal is to ensure an ambulance can respond when someone calls 911, but establishing the regions and determining how they would be funded could take years. Do you support creating regional ambulance service systems with state oversight and potential state funding?
