President\/CEO Brandon Long wrote the following information to each of the Longeviti associates:<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u201cIt is my privilege and joy to bring to your attention the noble and commendable actions taken by one of your fellow employees.\u00a0 One of our customer sites is located in Phoenix, AZ, where we support the Federal Protective Service. \u00a0Mr. Jason McGowan is Longeviti\u2019s on-site representative there and it\u2019s his act of humanity that I wish to bring into the spotlight.<\/p>\n
Late in the evening of May 20th<\/sup> of this year, while driving in Tempe, AZ, he and his wife observed a woman in the center of the highway overpass, sitting on the guardrail with her feet over the edge and looking towards the traffic and street, some 75\u2019 to 100\u2019 below.\u00a0 Without hesitation, Mr. McGowan stopped his vehicle and went to her aid.\u00a0 Upon reaching her, he could see that she was despondent and contemplating suicide.\u00a0 Impulsively, without thinking of the risk to himself, he grabbed hold of the woman and coaxed her back to safety while instructing his wife to call for police assistance.\u00a0 When the police arrived on the scene, Mr. McGowan led the lady towards the patrol car while providing words of comfort.<\/em><\/p>\n If not for Mr. McGowan\u2019s actions, and those of his wife, it is very likely the lady would have ended her life and perhaps that of some innocent on the freeway below.\u00a0 He comes to Longeviti after retiring from the U.S. Air Force.\u00a0 He unselfishly put his own safety at risk to help another human, demonstrating that service to the people of this great nation doesn\u2019t end when the uniform comes off.<\/p>\n I want to publicly commend Mr. McGowan for his virtuous actions and display of concern for another and invite each of you to do the same.\u00a0 I am proud to have him as part of the Longeviti team.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Longeviti recently declared its first ever Humanitarian Award with the recipient being Mr. Jason McGowan, a member of the Longeviti Support Staff and a USAF Retiree.
