Why I Joined Fire/EMS

I was raised in the fire dept. and joined as soon as I turned 16. I love every bit of it, it is my passion! My boss keeps trying to get me to take the civil service exam cuz she thinks that I would be great at it, but I love my job and it is just as dangerous, if not more. I have seen the good, bad and the evil, have treated strangers and loved ones. I love being a community servent, and pride myself on being available at every waking and not so waking moment. I do what I know, what I can and try to do everything else. Someday I will be Chief....Ray Ray watch out!

Why I Love Fire/EMS

my brothers and sisters, all the friends I have made everywhere, and Waterball!
