Hello Everybody

    In the small town where I live, there was a fire last night and a family lost nearly everything they had. Thank God that no human lives were lost but they did lose their pet dog and her puppies. Andrew, the 10 year old member of this family was a true hero. This little kid broke through the locked door to get his little brother out of the room where the fire started and also grabbed his litle sister on the way out. Andrew was already in action when the smoke alarm went off.

    Now, this family is left with nothing but each other. I am asking for help from any of you who can do anything to help this family out. The following is a notice that we are posting around the community and in our forums. Please do what you can to help. They have even lost all of their Christmas presents. Anything that you can do to help this family will be greatly appreciated. Many Blessings to you All and Merry Christmas Everybody.

Hello Gary Thanks for your concern and for the information. I used to be a fireman so I understand what you are saying. Most of my time in service was spent as a rescue man on either crash or structural crews. So many times we see loss that could have been easily prevented with a little fore thought and knowledge about fire. I think that the most important things to know about fire situations are 1st, have a highly rated alarm system that will warn you in time. Second, Make sure everyone has and knows their egresss route. It won't help to be forwarned if you can't get out anyhow. 3rd. Understand what fire hazards are. Overloaded electrical circuits are a common cause of fires. Also, clean out your vents and flues and never run wire under carpet. There are many other things to watch for also but these are just a few of the most common mistakes people mane. thanks again Gary May a smile follow you to sleep each night,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and be there waiting,,, when you awaken.
