I have learned from a dedicated life guard about a very special person on many levels. It is an honor to learn his name, Larry Hobbs, and of his wonderful breakthroughs to help enliven and ensure safety to the Florida Neptune Beach Community on the beach and off. There is coverage on News4Jax.com (June 13, 2019)
One of the ways he helped our world is to become the first African American life guard hired at Neptune Beach back when that was not the norm. He served faithfully and as a pillar of the team, saving 5 or 6 lives as well assisting with dozens more.
