    Hey Jake!!!! A voice from the past. I have been hiding in Connecticut, back in the same town I grew up in. I am currently a Captain and trainign officer for the Broad Brook Fire Department and work as a Director of Safety & Security for a 70 Acre retirement and health care facility in Bloomfield. How have you been doing. You still the Rowan County Fire Marshal? I wanted so much to go down the Sailsbury after the tragic events at the Salisbury Mill fire, but I could not get the time off from work. Please keep in touch, it was great hearing from you.

    Oh, well congrats on the Chief position! Yes Tina and I are still hitched, going on 22 Years. All the kids have grow up and all but one is out of the house now. While the mill fire is unfortunate, yes this how hard lessons are learned. That is, after the finger pointing is over. There are time each month that I regret leaving Salisbury, but if I didn't leave then, I would have run for the Captains position and would have stayed forever. I check on the Salisbury web site quite often, just to stay up on whats going on down there. Stay safe and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Hey! sorry I haven't responded. But this is the first time I've been on in quite a while. I think you are talking about "Big Joe". I will find out his email and get back with you. Take care and be safe.
