that feels great to know that he is still remembered .  i figure if you knew him that  you also know his wife amy.  i have thought about going to the station whenever i got out to the island but i ended up not getting around to it.   are there any photos of him  from when he was in the fire service?  also i had a few questions about the department in general are you paid or a vol department?  also i  thought about staying during the summer out on the island. and with that said  thought i could be of use to you all since im already in a department out here on long island. i have had a few friends that went off to colleges and give service at other vol depts  near there school through a mutual agreement with our department  here at home.
