It was a pleausre to be able to honor our Firefighters.. I have personally had a house fire(Manasard roof being re tarred, roofers left because it was starting to rain a bit....The evidence burned that they were probably heating seams with a torch but that is another story)

..The firefighters did their usual great job of trying to protect my furniture with tarps, etc, minimal damage, considering ,to my furnishings..fire damage was to roof, attic and the ceiling collapsed in one area....

My story is of the extra mile they went when a three inch rain occurred soon after the fire and the roof tarps wouldn't hold..They came and pumped the water out of my living room for me, graciously and cheerfully. I have never forgotten it..I am sure I called them in a "now what do I do moment".

Thank God for Firefighters..they do far more important things but this meant a lot to me.

Thank you for serving us, saving lives and risking and sometimes losing your own in service to your fellow man.
