Why I Joined Fire/EMS
I moved up to Glenburn when I was 21 and met a friend who was a firefighter on the fire dept. and asked him what I need to do to be a firefighter. I've been doing it for 18 yrs. now and still love it. I have been a Lieutenant for about 10 yrs. We are only volunteers and we love to serve our community.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
Knowing that i'm able to help people in our community that need our help when they call.
Top Issues Facing Responders:
All the training and paper work that is now required by OSHA and others. Being a volunteer dept. we're not always at the station to keep up with this stuff like we would be if we were a career dept.

    Hi Wayne,
    My weekend went way too fast. I worked my 24 hr shift at my full time job on Saturday ,and then spent some time Saturday with my niece who is almost 4. Then I drove home in the yucky snow storm...but I made it home safely and now I'm at work at my per diem job. I'm tired today. Well have a great week and stay safe.

    Hey sweetie, have a question for you. I seen and liked your skull cross bones tat on your right shoulder. How did it feel being across your shoulder blade? Reason I ask is...I have a large surgical scare on my left shoulder from previous surguries and have another to go on the 19th of this month ( from on the job injury) and i really want it covered up, startin to feel like frankenstein here,lol. I have talked to a tattoo artist, but naturally they would say,"oh, no pain hun",lol. I do really like the tattoo on your shoulder though, good idea. Please be careful today.
