| Biography | |
| Dennis’ strong religious convictions and deep value for human life meant that he would do everything permissible to take care of people who needed him, and he did so until his final moments. On June 24, 2014, Paramedic Dennis Rushing, 31, and EMT Alan Smith, 48, were responding to a medical call on Mississippi Highway 63. As they passed two 18-wheelers, the lead truck made a left turn into the path of the ambulance killing Dennis and Alan. |
