Our QDR Hometown Hero of the week is Jacob Norris, Johnston County EMS and Antioch Fire Department.
Jacob has spent the last six years in EMS and fire, which basically means he’s seen it all—chaos, caffeine-fueled shifts, and the occasional “why did I sign up for this?” moment. Through it all, he’s stayed dedicated to helping others, showing up with a calm attitude, sharp skills, and just enough sarcasm to keep things interesting. Whether he’s handling emergencies or keeping things light during the tough calls, Jacob brings a steady presence and a dry sense of humor that makes him a great partner and an even better friend. Six years in, and somehow he still shows up ready to do it all again. He’s the living definition of someone who will give you the shirt off their back if you need it.
Thank you, Jacob, for your service! As a token of our appreciation, we’re sending you a $50 gift card to Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q to thank you for all you do.
