PIO Price Receives Prestigious Recognition

Wednesday, February 8, 2023

PIO H. Stephen Price, a Gold Badge Life Member of the Ocean City Volunteer Fire Company, as well as a member of the Ocean City Fire Department’s Peer Support Team, was recognized this evening as the team’s Member of the Year for 2022.

 

The Peer Support Team, begun in April of 2020, exists “to be able to listen, support, refer, and assist department members and their families during professional and personal times of need.”

 

Mr. Price was chosen as this year’s recipient “Because he is not only extremely active on the team, but volunteers to help constantly. He is a respected member of not only our department, but other departments, and the community. His experience in the school system and his community involvement makes him an indispensable resource.” said Peer Support Team Coordinator Eric Olson.

 

Olson added that “He [Price] is just a pleasure to be around and I seek his advice often. He has been on critical incident stress management teams for decades and is a very valuable member of our team.”
