Don Batayola, Physical Therapist

Don Batayola – a Physical Therapist in New Jersey – passed away due to COVID-19. Don Batayola was 41 years old. To his loved ones and the people whom he had worked with, Don Ryan Batayola’s legacy as a worker at the frontlines combating coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is marked with selflessness, humility, and devotion in taking care of others.

John P. Careccia, Trainer

John P. Careccia – a Chief and Training Director at Woodbridge Township Ambulance & Rescue Squad, Woodbridge, New Jersey – passed away on 17 April 2020 due to COVID-19, "I decided to pursue a career in Emergency Medical Care in 1993 after seeing what 2 emergency responders did to save my son," Careccia said in a 2015 interview with CPR Headquarters, where he also contributed as a columnist. "I decided then and there that I would pay it forward. I became a volunteer EMT in 1993 and started teaching CPR in 1994. I realized early on that I was able to teach others how to apply life saving techniques effectively especially when it came to using CPR to save lives. I developed a unique approach to teaching CPR more from a practical rather than technical application." Source: Firehouse Pl...

Nola Mae Moore, Physician

Nola Mae Moore – a Physician in Shoreline, Washington – passed away on 17 April 2020 after suffering from COVID-19. Nola was 88 years old. Nola had polio when she was 8. This resulted in a long hospital stay and, because her dominant left hand was paralyzed, Nola, never short on grit, taught herself to write with the right-with a very distinctive lefty slant. She remained semi-ambidextrous the rest of her life, which would later make her an excellent set of hands in surgery. Unfortunately, it would not be her last long childhood hospital stay. When she was 12, she and Duane developed a homemade pair of wings and eagerly climbed to the top of a nearby windmill. On a coin toss (that she won) she tried them out...and ended up in the hospital with a broken back for anot...

Darell Johnson, Porter

Darell Johnson – a Porter/Transporter at Morristown Medical Center, Morristown, New Jersey – passed away on 18 April 2020 after suffering from COVID-19. Johnson was 43 years old. Darell Johnson’s death has left a void in Morristown far bigger than his 360-pound frame, larger even, than the immense smile which, by all accounts, brightened every space he entered — from Morristown High School, where he was an administrative assistant; to the hospital, where he wheeled patients to their appointments; to local bars, where his primary weapons as a bouncer were his smile and calm demeanor. Trish O’Keefe, president of Morristown Medical Center, cited Darell’s “unforgettable smile, and his extraordinary way of taking care of his patien...
