Sharing this post from the LifeNet of New York Facebook page:
We are devastated to share that Flight Paramedic Kevin Robert passed away last night, August 27th, following a sudden medical emergency. Kevin, alongside a flight nurse and pilot, were caring for a patient aboard LifeNet 7-13, based out of Ticonderoga, NY.
Our crew quickly landed at a nearby hospital while our communications center coordinated emergency resources for Kevin and our patient. Despite the extraordinary efforts of our crew, communications teams, first responders, and the hospital staff, Kevin could not be revived.
Our priority now is the well-being of our teammates and the continued support of Kevin’s family. The Ticonderoga base remains on safety stand-down as we allow our team the time and space they need to grieve.
We ask that you keep Kevin’s family, friends, and teammates in your thoughts, and join us in respecting their privacy as we all navigate this heartbreaking loss. We will forever cherish the memories Kevin leaves with us, and we will carry his memory and legacy with us on every mission.

From the Penn State Health Facebook Page:
After more than two decades of lifesaving service, Penn State Health Life Lion’s Critical Care Transport helicopter, N600LL, took its final flight on Thursday, Aug. 7. Since its first mission on May 14, 2001, this incredible aircraft has transported more than 9,000 patients over 8,222 flight hours — carrying hope and care when it mattered most.
The final flight was piloted by Life Lion Chief Pilot Randy Emery, who also flew the helicopter’s inaugural flight and will be retiring in a few months after 25 dedicated years with Life Lion.

PennSTAR | August 4, 2025 | Doylestown, PA
PennSTAR 6 relocated today from KVAY (South Jersey Regional Airport) in Lumberton, New Jersey, to Penn Medicine Doylestown. Doylestown Hospital became part of Penn Medicine back on April 1, 2025, so no surprise that PennSTAR would place an aircraft at this location.
Prior to this, Temple MedFlight was based at Doylestown Hospital. Temple relocated to St. Mary Medical Center in Langhorne back in early July. Prior to Temple MedFlight, Doylestown Hospital was home to University MedEvac 5 back in the early 2000s.
