TUFTONBORO — A Tuftonboro family celebrating the birth of their daughter after an emergency delivery last month reunited with the New Hampshire 911 telecommunicator and local responders who guided them through the life-changing moment. The New Hampshire Department of Safety’s Division of Emergency Services and Communications (DESC) held a celebration event for Nick McNally, his partner, Keelin Shea, and their family Tuesday at the Tuftonboro Central Fire Department, where they had the opportunity to meet and thank the emergency professionals who played a crucial role in their baby Annalise’s safe arrival.

The call came into 911 after Keelin began having contractions, and they realized the baby was coming sooner than expected. Nick told attendees that their car was warming up in the driveway, his mother was arriving to watch their other daughter, and they were preparing to head to the hospital in Conway. However, they didn’t make it out the door, as baby Annalise arrived, even before the local responders reached the scene.
