Dear Mayor Vrabranovic and all City Counsellors:


On Monday August 1, server Michael Hendricks saved a life of a 9 month old baby that was choking at the Kelsey's restaurant on Ottawa Street. He continued to deliver back blows until the food shot out and the baby was breathing and crying. 


This man went above and beyond the call of duty and he also took the family in the privacy of their office to check to see if they were okay and he also did not charge them for their meals. 

We want the City of Kitchener to recognize him for his Heroism is saving that baby's life.


Way to go Michael and he deserves an award and recognition from Kitchener City Hall and the Kitchener community.


Sincerely,

Update #17 years ago
I appreciate all of your hard work and City Councillor Kelly Galloway-Sealock said in a statement to my email.

"I have spoken with the Mayor and we are going to look at having Michael presented with a certificate at our next council meeting."

Thank you to everyone that signed my petition. :). I encourage everyone to come out on August 29, 2016 at 7 p.m. to show our support for Michael as he gets an award from Kitchener City Council. Thank you to our amazing community! :).
