- About Me:
- I joined South Media Fire company in feb. as a probationary firefigher. I chose south media because my grandfather was a member there and so i knew many of the members there. My grandfather was George T. Lewis a very well respected fire marshal and fire service advocate in delaware county. He served as county fire marshal till he died in 1991. he pioneered many ideas that are in use today and help establish a county wide training center. I just wanted to continue in his foot steps and leave behind my own legacy in the firefighting world.

What is it to be a Firefighter?
