Why I Joined Fire/EMS
The old cliche, just wanted to serve my community. Also carry on family tradition, four generations.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
The feeling of knowing that i have been able to get my crews home safely after all calls.
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Dwindling numbers in the volunteer sector. Also critical political issues in New York State regarding special interest groups trying to dismantle fire districts. New York state is in dire need of continued funding for the training of our fire fighters. Until we stop re-electing our slate of politicians in Albany, things will only get worse. Same of our reps in Washington. The lies just don't end.

Good morning my sleepy man, It's not going to be that long of a week . We will get you some sleep i promise. I also will drive to rivers edge so you can nap and enjoy the ride.I want you and I to be relaxed, and be able to enjoy every minute we have alone together. You make me so happy. Next week If I can't get someone to switch with me, i am taking the day off. I think the extra days will be nice i am looking forward to a little vacation with you and christopher together(some normalcy). He has been wanting to get away with us again.
