Keith Woodson Anness helped to save Stewart L. Miller from burning, Harrodsburg, Kentucky, June 29, 1985. Stewart, 17, lay unconscious on the front seat of his burning car after a highway accident. Anness, 39, electrician, working nearby, ran to the car and tried to open its doors, but they were jammed. He then attempted to pull Stewart through one of the car’s windows when he saw Stewart’s foot caught in the car’s pedals. With flames entering the car, Anness reached inside and freed the foot. Calling for help, Anness was joined by another man, and the two reached through the passenger window and pulled Stewart from the car. They dragged Stewart away from the car seconds before it was engulfed in flames. Stewart was treated for minor injuries, from which he recovered. 60523-6986
