Yesterday, our Richmond Body Works family experienced a very difficult and unexpected situation. By the grace of God, we are thankful to share that our team member is expected to make a full recovery, and the suspect involved is now in custody.
We are incredibly grateful for the quick thinking and courageous actions of our staff. In a frightening moment, they immediately stepped in to care for their fellow team member until help arrived, while also helping to ensure that the suspect could be apprehended. Their calm, selfless response reflects the character and integrity of the Richmond Body Works family, and we could not be prouder of the way they responded when it mattered most. Thank you will never feel like enough.
Our sincere thanks go out to Franklin County EMS and the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office for their rapid response, professionalism, and dedication to serving our community.
We are also deeply grateful for the overwhelming support, prayers, and kindness shown by our community during this time, as well as your continued prayers for healing and strength as our team member recovers. The messages, encouragement, and support have meant so much to our entire team. Moments like this remind us just how strong and compassionate our community truly is, and we are incredibly thankful to be a part of it.
