EMS has announced the funeral arrangements for a Travis County paramedic
killed in a car crash Saturday.
Both the visitation and funeral services for Captain Randy Trinkle are open to the public.
The visitation will be at Schaetter Funeral Home in Fredericksburg. It's split between two days—Wednesday from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Thursday morning from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m.
Trinkle's funeral service will begin 1 p.m. Thursday at the First Baptist Church in Fredericksburg.
Cpt.Trinkle spent 15 years with Austin-Travis County EMS. He was not only a paramedic, but also a training officer for the agency's Special Operations Team.
He also worked as part of the Texas Task Force during Hurricane Katrina. He leaves behind two children and a wife, who all live in Fredericksburg.
The family asks anyone interested in donating to contact the Austin Paramedics Relief Fund.
