May 2025 Health Hero - Jeff Rowling (Ocean Shores IGA)
‍
‍We’re proud to recognize Jeff Rowling, Meat Manager at Ocean Shores IGA, as this month’s Health Hero—a title well earned through decades of dedication and service to both his workplace and the greater community.For over 25 years, Jeff has served as a volunteer firefighter with the Ocean City Fire Department, balancing his full-time job behind the meat counter with a strong commitment to public safety.

He responds to over 100 emergency calls each year, providing critical assistance when it matters most.At the store, Jeff is often the first responder in medical situations—whether it’s a customer who’s fallen, someone experiencing breathing difficulties, or an employee with a chronic condition. Ocean Shores Store Director Kristi Schamber notes that Jeff steps in to help at least a couple of times a week. He doesn’t just offer support; he ensures a smooth handoff to paramedics, gathering essential information and providing immediate care until help arrives.He even brings a blood pressure cuff to work to check on staff who suffer from high blood pressure.

Most recently, Jeff took the test to become an EMT with the fire department, further equipping himself to provide life-saving care on the spot.Jeff takes deep pride in the lives he’s helped save over the years—from victims of car accidents and structure fires to individuals suffering heart attacks. His impact is felt far beyond the fire station and the store. Customers regularly stop him to say thank you, and in one unforgettable moment, a man (his former teacher’s husband) whose life he saved from a heart attack stopped his car when he saw Jeff walking down the street just so he could hug him and thank him.

Courage runs in the family—Jeff and his son Matt, also a volunteer firefighter, have faced danger side by side. One such moment came during a plane crash at the Ocean Shores Airport. With leaking fuel and the risk of explosion looming, they cut through the wreckage to reach the trapped pilot. For their heroic efforts, both were awarded the Medal of Merit—the first such award given to their fire district in 70 years.Jeff’s journey began in high school, inspired by the fire chief’s son. He became a Junior Firefighter and then went through rigorous training to become a volunteer firefighter with Grays Harbor Fire District #7. For 25 years, he has remained committed to this tough, unpaid, occasionally risky work.

He is a powerful role model, not only to his own son but to young people in the community. He leads fire safety events, participates in fundraising, and for 12 consecutive years, climbed all 69 floors of Seattle’s Columbia Tower in full gear for the Firefighter Stair Climb.Jeff Rowling is the embodiment of community spirit and selfless service. We’re honored to celebrate his incredible contributions—and grateful to have him as one of the Myers Group family.

Jeff’s son Matt wanted to include his own perspective:“Since I was a little boy, I always aspired to be like my dad: a hardworking man who will always be there for anyone at any point. But the biggest reason I wanted to be like my dad was because he is a firefighter. As I grew up, I got to watch him go on calls. Finally, when I was old enough, I signed up to be a cadet. Nine years later, we are the father son duo on Grays Harbor Fire District #7.One of many favorite memories I have with my dad is a few years back on Halloween I told my dad something big was going to happen. He brushed it off because he said I always want something big to happen. Low and behold, we faced back-to-back structure fires. We got to work as a team deciding how to tackle the fires and ensure we got the job done safely and effectively. We also had the honor of receiving a Medal of Merit from Ocean Shores Fire Department when we assisted in the airplane crash almost a year ago. We have so many memories and I can’t wait to make many more with him. And that is just a few reasons why my dad is my hero.”
