Why I Joined Fire/EMS
I joined to help my fellow citizens when they needed help during time of emergency, disaster or fires. I was happy enough to have served 25 years with some of the BEST people you could have ever asked to serve with before a career ending injury took me out of the Fire-Rescue business. I support ALL of my Brother and Sister Smoke Eaters and do what I can to be there when needed...
Why I Love Fire/EMS
I love the people I meet
