SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 654
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
recognize the Argyle Fire District crew members, whose quick
thinking and decisive action saved the life of a Northlake
citizen; and
WHEREAS, On March 30, 2019, the Denton County Sheriff's
Office dispatch center received a 9-1-1 call regarding an
individual who had fallen to the floor and was unconscious in a
residence; and
WHEREAS, Crew members responding to the call were
Lieutenant Mon Nguyen, driver-engineer Chad McInis, firefighter
Brent Barnfield, firefighter-paramedic Zachary Haas, and
firefighter-paramedic Jared Wells; and
WHEREAS, Upon arriving at the scene, the crew discovered
the unconscious citizen was without a pulse; under the leadership

WHEREAS, These exemplary first responders are truly
deserving of special recognition for their courage and for saving
the life of a fellow citizen; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th

District members for their heroic efforts; and, be it further

the crew as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.
