Marion County Sheriff's Deputy David Forsyth and White Hall Police Chief Gino Guerrieri were presented with certificates of recognition from Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin at the Capitol on Wednesday.
On Sept. 29, 2015, Guerrieri and Forsyth responded to a call that Patti Satterfield had collapsed and stopped breathing at Almost Heaven Family Chiropractic, in White Hall, where she works. The men performed CPR on Satterfield for more than 10 minutes while waiting for a Marion County Rescue Squad to arrive.
On Wednesday, Tomblin and the American Heart Association presented the officers with certificates of recognition and CPR Heartsaver Hero awards during their visit to Charleston. Satterfield surprised them by showing up to express her thanks.
