Into the blue, the black, the grey

Into the skies of night, of day

To cities, mountains, the towns big and small

The Medevac goes to answer the call

When lives hang in the balance, needing critical care

These selfless providers quickly take to the air

Expertly trained for their work, with skills tried and true

They are the elite, the Air Medical Flight Crew

Collective sighs of relief, when they arrive

Heard softly through prayers, “Keep this patient alive.”

Then they race through the sky, cheating death once again

To the specialty care on this flight's other end

Yet, sadly we know, these crews don't always come home

This mission tonight is their final one flown

On their way back, something went terribly wrong

Now we gather together, and try to be strong

They were lost in a moment, the three souls on that flight

Warmly welcomed to heaven by God on that night

They are fathers and mothers, wives, daughters and sons,

Grandchildren DNA colleagues, a dear friend to someone

We honor your service, we'll always be in your debt,

Your kindness and care, we will Never Forget!

Together, we remember John 15:13

“To lay down his life, no greater love hath thee…”
