Hometown Hero of the Week: Jacob Pope, December 18th, 2024

Hometown Hero of the Week: Jacob Pope, December 18th, 2024

Our QDR Hometown Hero of the week is Jacob Pope, firefighter for the Antioch Fire Department. 

Jacob has been on the Antioch Fire Department for a year now. He loves to help people in his community any chance he gets. Whenever he has a free moment, he is up at the fire department helping around there and responding to calls as they come in. He recently received his EMR degree from JCC and will be going back in January to work on his EMT and then eventually his Paramedic certifications. He does all this while working a full-time job that has him flying all over the country. He is a true inspiration of hard work and dedication and has a true passion and love for his community and local volunteer fire department.

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 and $50 from First Horizon Bank to thank you for all you do.
