We have been going through a rash of that ourselves, we have lost one grandfather and 2 grandmothers in 6 months and found out my wife's father has stage 4 cancer. Anyway, enough of my woes. Things have been going good at the fire dept. There has been alot of changes since you left, retirements and promotions, all for the good. Well I better get off here, you take care and may God Bless you.
