Firefighter/Paramedic Samanas had completed his yearly physical agility test and stopped to take a break. About 40 minutes after completing the test, he returned to assist other firefighters with the test. He soon became short of breath. He was placed on oxygen, started feeling better, and then began to experience chest pain. ALS cardiac procedures were started; however, he collapsed before a monitor defibrillator could be attached.
Firefighter/Paramedic Samanas was transported to a local hospital where he later died.

Bob was a real nice guy; I remember him always smiling and laughing. Everyone liked him. I am adding his name to our list of classmates who have passed away which can be found at "light a candle in memory" on Facebook.
