I just wanted to take a moment and thank those of you that may be out there that are volunteer firemen and women. My mother called me at 3:30 in the morning to tell me her house was on fire. I raced to the house in time to get her and her dog out and send her away while I stood there and watched it burn to the ground with the volunteer fire fighters that responded. They waited with me for almost 7 hours, long after they could have left and did everything they could to save the home. Today the home is a pile of charred wood and ash surrounded by the three remaining brick walls. The volunteer firemen came by again this afternoon and dropped of an envelope with some cash in it for my parents. The home and the contents will be replaced by the insurance company and many memories were lost but those few volunteers left us with some new memories we won't soon forget. Thanks to you if you are a volunteer firefighter, my hat is off to you.
