On behalf of the families of West Nyack Little League we’d like to thank Coach Lance Gilden of the AA-League Giants for coming to the immediate life-saving rescue of one of our players on Friday night, May 18, 2013. A player was choking on a food product, not breathing, and the Heimlich Maneuver was performed. Coach Lance, You are one of the quick-thinking heroes that helps make this community a safe place to live. THANK YOU. UPDATE: We’d also like to thank A-League Twins Manager Tom Gilbart for his calm assistance as he helped Coach Lance perfect the technique that ultimately ended in success. YET ANOTHER UPDATE:  Still more thanks to the assistance of Bruce Bannerman who assisted with Post-Choking evaluation and care.
