The Pittston Township Ambulance Association
Dedicates this web site to all
Men and Women
Who serve in Emergency Services
Not for who we are
But for what we maybe called upon to do.
And especially to those who gave their lives
Assisting those persons
Whom they never met.
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
May these Emergency Services Providers
Never Be Forgotten
**********************************************************

Our Prayer

I never dreamed it would be me, my name for all eternity,
Recorded here at this hallow place, alas, my name, no more my face.
"In the line of duty," I hear them say: my family now the price to pay.
My folded flag stained with their tears; we only had those few short years.
The badge no longer on my chest, I sleep now in eternal rest.
My sword I pass to those behind, and pray they keep this thought in mind.
I never dreamed it would be me, and with heavy heart and bended knee,
I ask for all here from the past:

Dear God, let my name be the last.
-unknown
