Lee County Emergency Medical Services regrets to share that EMT Jessica Sanchez passed away following an off-duty accident last weekend.

EMT Sanchez joined the department in 2023. During her time with us, she became known for her bright smile, positivity, and remarkable ability to lift up everyone around her. In the past few days, countless stories have been shared by her colleagues, all echoing the same truth: she made every day lighter, every shift better, and every life she touched fuller.

We stand with her family in mourning her loss and in sharing the joy she brought to so many who knew her.
