DETROIT (FOX 2) – A journeyman mason was on hand as the two Detroit Fire medics were honored for bringing him back from the brink on Tuesday.
The backstory:
Every day is a second chance for Micah Parker. Today it was another chance for him to say thanks.
“I see this guy every day from the memories,” he said.
Parker is talking about Detroit Firefighter Paramedic Chris Photiades.
“We’re responding to a different call and we were rerouted from a different call to this one,” he said.
The DFD Medic Crew was just in time to arrive at Mann Elementary School in Detroit.
“When we got there we saw the patient, his union brothers were doing CPR on him,” said Photiades.
Parker, who was working as a journeyman mason, had suffered cardiac arrest and was clinically dead.
“It was very tense. We recognized immediately that we needed to fire all cylinders when working on this guy,” said Samuel Lemire, DFD firefighter.
“We lowered him down on the ground, cut his shirt off, started CPR on him, threw the defibrillator pads on him,” said Photiades.
And then finally – there was a sign of life.
“Between us and his union brothers, Engine Company 55, we all worked together to bring him back from the dead, literally,” said Photiades.
FOX 2 first met Parker last November when he met with his union brothers, medics and DMC Sinai Grace Hospital staff to say thank you.
“I’m just happy that I am really able to talk about all this,” he said, then.
Fast-forward to EMS Week 2025 and Parker showed his appreciation while the two medics received the Kim Lagerquist Lifesaver of the Year Award from the Detroit East Medical Control Authority.

“Every day members go above and beyond, but for some cases, they just really need that extra recognition,” said Chuck Simms, DFD executive fire commissioner.
Everyone involved in this life-saving story say you, too, can be a hero, and it starts with learning hands-only CPR
“You not knowing CPR could be the difference between someone living or dying around you,”
“It’s two to three hours out of your day for a lifetime of knowledge that could save your life, or someone you love,” said Photiades.

Organizations and companies are partnering to introduce Black students in Detroit to golf
The Rocket Classic has steered nearly $10 million from the annual PGA event held in Detroit to local charitable organizations. Of that, $800,000 has been given to programs that teach kids how to play the game. One program provides access to college scholarships to high school seniors, while upward of 700 children and teens take part each year in programs put on by First Tee of Greater Detroit.
”Golf is the why we get them there, but while we have them there we’re teaching them life skills,” said Carl Bentley, chief executive of First Tee of Greater Detroit, which has donated a golf simulator to the school district. ”Learning how to say ‘yes sir, yes ma’am’ — shake a hand properly, how to start a conversation. We’re teaching them life skills and then we get to putting and swinging and things like that.”
Among the 28.1 million Americans who played golf on a course in 2024, about 25% were Black, Asian or Hispanic, according to the National Golf Foundation. Interest is wider when considering those who played or followed professional golf coverage on TV, in writing or via podcasts.
But Hawkins said his experience as a coach suggests Black high schoolers aren’t among that audience.
”You don’t hear kids talking about the latest golf shoes or the cool golf apparel,” Hawkins said. ”You’re not necessarily going to get a badge of honor walking into your high school and you’ve got the newest golf shirt.”
