Quick-Thinking 3rd-grader From West Frankfort Is a True Hero!

It's not every day that you get to talk with a real-life hero, but I was able to do just that when I spoke with T'niyah Avant, 3rd-grade student at Frankfort Intermediate School.  It seems it's getting harder and harder to find some real good news these days, but T'niyah's story was too good not to share!  After her friend choked during lunch, she jumped into action and saved his life!  Incredible!  Scroll down for my interview with her on today's Kent in the Country Morning Show!
