Hi!
Oh and a big HELLO! to
Julie and Family!! Congratulations on your new home!
.
Summer is almost gone and fall is just around the corner. Let's be careful with burning leaves!
My favorite quote, comes from Abraham Lincoln:
Kindness is the only service that will stand the storm of life and not wash out. It will wear well and be remembered long after the prism of politeness or the complexion of courtesy has faded away.
When I am gone, I hope it can be said of me that I plucked a thistle and planted a flower wherever I thought a flower would grow.

Please be careful with all outside activities! Only you can prevent forest fires!
Learn Not To Burn!
I would like to offer my prayers and condolences to the families of all my fire service brothers and sisters who have died in the line of duty this year.
"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends"

If you have a fire service related anecdote that you would like to share, E-mail me at twalker@hughes.net or sign my guestbook and leave it there. I will include it on my page in the future along with your name. Please keep it as brief as possible.
FACT: Each year, nearly 1,000 children ages 14 and under die in home fires. Ninety percent die in homes without working smoke detectors.
FACT: Smoke detectors should always be properly maintained. Try to change the batteries in your detector each time you reset your clocks for the time change.
FACT: Fires give off heat, smoke, super heated gases and of course flame. All of which can be fatal. A smoke detector will alert you early!
FACT: Oxygen is not only essential for human life, but also is the key to supporting the life of fire. When fire and humans compete for the limited amount of oxygen in a burning building, FIRE ALWAYS WINS!!!
Children have a natural curiosity of fire and we as adults should set a good example for them to follow. Remember children learn by watching and imitating adults.

Lest we forget:
Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
