Here are some videos from the AED presentation and mire in comments.......
Huge thank you to Jean Ferris , her daughter Kathy Ferris Lowry Lowry and their family for the donation to the Savanna Museum and Cultural Center!!!! Jean and her daughter donated an AED (automated external defibrillator) in case of an emergency at the museum! We had 7 board members and some volunteers for the museum at the class that Kathy gave on how to use it! What an amazing donation to our museum. We hope we'd never have to use it but if needed it's there and can maybe save a life! Jean is a founding member of the museum and we appreciate her time and hard work she gave to the museum from day one. Thank you sometimes just isn't enough Jean and Kathy!
