I am posting this for a friend of mine. The Fire Chief who's son is fighting cancer, works at a neighboring dept just to the north of us. Any help would be greatly appreciated, THANKS !!!!!

Greetings Fellow Firefighters,

I am writing to you asking for a huge favor. My name is Anna Kegley and am the wife of a firefighter in the small community of Iron River in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

I am on a mission to make a young mans day a little brighter. Our Fire Chiefs 14 year old son Jacob is in a childrens hospital in Minnesota fighting leukemia for the second time. He is set to have a bone marrow transplant soon but will spend a couple of months in the hospital. Jacob is a true staple of strength at our department. He absolutley loves firefighters so we are hoping you can help us out a little by dropping him a small note of encouragement and if possible maybe add a small token from your department..whether it be a shirt,(adult lg) picture, patch or just a note is fine too. We are just trying to help him add a few smile to his day and getting some support from other departments would be a thrill for him.

If you could help us out I would greatly appreciate it and I know he and his family would too. He has a caringbridge site if you would like to check it out! Also please feel free to share this with other departments! Thank you for your help, stay safe and God Bless.....Anna Kegley
