The Simonson Law Firm of Ocean City recently donated 500 N95 masks for use by first responders and public employees in the city.
Ed Simonson, the new firm’s principal, said he has worked as both a seasonal police officer and a public works employee in Ocean City and that he understands the risks these workers face every day.
Simonson also said he has seen first-hand how COVID-19 has affected members of his own family, according to a city news release Tuesday announcing his donation.
Michael Allegretto, aide to Mayor Jay Gillian, thanked Simonson on behalf of the city administration, and noted that the city appreciates the community effort to limit the spread of the pandemic.
