Teaneck Residents Honor Late Ambulance Worker with 'VSmile Bags'

Group gave out food bags in NYC.

The following was submitted to Patch as a Letter to the Editor.

A dear friend and fellow ambulance corps member died 5 years ago, he was 22 years old.

To honor his memory a few of us got together and made "VSmile Bags" and gave them out to those less fortunate/homeless in NY Wednesday morning.

The bags had a bagel or a sandwich with a drink a snack and a piece of fruit and a napkin...and the VSmile Card.

Vishal Shah smiled a lot and touched so many lives in his 22 years. There's not a day that goes by that he is not in our thoughts.
