Responders never know exactly what calls will come in and for this week’s Friday Feel Good we pick up the receiver and trace it back over 2 decades to a story that begins with a rescue and ends with a unique connection.

24 years ago, a cop in Indiana named Gene Eyster saved a baby boy after someone abandoned him in a cardboard box.
Now they’re in the news after Gene found out the kid grew up to become a cop himself. 24-year-old Matthew Hegedus-Stewart is a rookie with the same police department and says it’s likely not a coincidence that he followed this career path.
YOU CAN HEAR THE FRIDAY FEEL GOOD EVERY FRIDAY AT 2:30pm ON GREATEST HITS 98.1
