From the Unionleader,
“CONCORD, N.H. — Dozens of first-responders and quick-acting citizens received recognition at the Statehouse on Thursday for their heroic actions.
The annual Union Leader Hero Awards recognize people who acted heroically to help others, some even sacrificing their own lives.
The waters of the Merrimack River were running high last summer when a man and his two stepdaughters fell off their jet ski and were left clinging to a barrier cable just 300 feet from the Amoskeag Falls and likely death.
And then there was Frontiero, the 27-year-old emergency medical technician from Nashua who went to the aid of two women being attacked by a knife-wielding motorist on Spruce Street last Oct. 9. The attacker turned the knife on Frontiero, fatally stabbing him 16 times. The two women survived.
“Paul Frontiero will always be a hero,” McQuaid said to a standing ovation from the approximate 200 people who gathered beneath a white tent. Paul and Cathy Frontiero of Gloucester, Mass., accepted the award posthumously on behalf of their son, whom they described as someone who spent his life helping others. “We’re proud of him,” said Salvatore Frontiero, 25, one of Paul’s three brothers.”
