Mark Johnson, a lieutenant and paramedic with the Carlsbad Fire Department, was recently recognized as a Devon Hometown Hero. The program celebrates the dedication and expertise of emergency responders, including law enforcement officials, firefighters, EMTs, 911 dispatchers and city employees.
Lt. Johnson’s exceptional contributions to the Carlsbad community’s safety have earned him this well-deserved honor. For the last decade, Johnson has consistently shown selflessness and bravery. As a lieutenant, Johnson not only leads his team of firefighters but also provides them with mentorship and support.
“Mark’s leadership and compassion have a big impact on both our teams and the community,” said Gregoy Perez who nominated Johnson for the award. “His dedication to Carlsbad is unwavering, and even when off duty, he goes above and beyond to assist those in need.”
Recently Johnson was honored by the City of Carlsbad for his quick and decisive actions. When he saw a stroller roll into Lake Carlsbad, Johnson immediately sprang into action, saving the baby’s life and calming the distressed grandmother.
“We are grateful for Mark’s long-term dedication to Eddy County,” said Molly Young, community relations specialist at Devon Energy. “This award represents our deep appreciation for those who keep our community safe—our hometown heroes.”
Devon Hometown Heroes are named periodically, and nominations can be submitted at www.devonenergy.com/hometownheroes. All nominees must serve in an emergency response role in either Eddy County or Lea County, New Mexico.
