Why did you become a Firefighter? | |
I wanted to serve my community in some way and would rather put myself at risk than others. | |
Favorite thing about being a Firefighter? | |
Mr. Rogers once said, “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’” I get the honor and privilege of being one of those helpers. | |
