Ed Day, Rockland County Executive
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 21, 2020
Statement from County Executive Ed Day
The untimely deaths this morning of two William P. Faist Volunteer Ambulance Corps members is extremely difficult to bear. I join with all of Rockland in mourning 1st Lt. Supply Officer Moshe Herzog and EMT David Schneebalg who served our community as dedicated volunteers. The loss of these young men is devastating, but their service to our community will not soon be forgotten.
As a former NYPD commander and first responder I urge those who responded to the scene or were otherwise affected by this loss to speak with the mental health counselors available through your agencies. Responding to a tragedy of this nature is not easy and speaking from experience, some of these memories will stay with you for years, but help is available.
