Today is the last day at Williamson County EMA for Readiness Coordinator Shannon Lewis, and the office won’t be the same without him.
Shannon is heading west to return to the fire service, where he has decades of experience, leadership, and dedication to helping others. Hardworking, dependable, and always willing to help, he’s been the kind of teammate every organization hopes for.
We were glad to surprise him with a farewell lunch with most of the crew. Thank you for everything, Shannon! Come back and see us anytime! 🚒👏
