    Brother.... Great to meet you and kudos for grabbing a front row seat...

    I cannot tell you how impressed I was by the enthusiasm and warmth of firefighters from your area and I felt at home immediately...

    I hope those conversations you had with your fellow firefighters turns into concrete action to ensure that no Ohio firefighters aspyxiate or perish due to smoke related cancer. Only leaders like yourself can make that happen.

    God bless you bro...
