Rick Lasky's Comments

Hey Brother! Have your ears been burning? I did a presentation last night to my local FOOLS chapter (Tablerock FOOLS) on history of the fire service. I think it got a lot of the Brothers thinking. We showed your DVD and I think it hit home. I have been asked to come to some of the other departments in the county to make my presentation and to make it at our Firefigher's Association. It is my goal to try to reach every department in our county and share the pride and ownership for the job. You have paved the way for this country's firefighter's to take pride in their history and tradition.Even though the pride has always been there for most of us, I think brothers were held back from showing it by some. For that, I thank you. And I thank you for being a down to earth guy who hasn't forgotten where he came from! I have a tremendous amount of respect for you, Sir!! Please send our condolensces and prayers to the Travolta family in the tragic loss of their son. Everyone was deeply saddened by the news.Thank you again!!

Hey Rick,

I still owe you a phone call about our 2010 seminar. We need to get you back for another trip to Tony Packos.

Stay Safe.

Chief Lasky, from all your brothers in Southeastern Idaho, we look forward with great anticipation to you coming our way and lecturing, as well as the time we can spend in your house at the KTA Conference this year. We are the Eastern Idaho FOOLS and the IFFD Pipes and Drums. See ya in Lewisville & we'll buy ya a beer!!!

Chief Lasky,
I wanted to say thank you for your commitment to the fire service leadership! I have been listening to your podcasts and just finished your book... both have truly inspired me to understand why my superiors approach issues a certain way. You have also LIT my FIRE for PRIDE, and OWNERSHIP to find myself in the fire service as this looked down upon "Gamer Generation" firefighter.

I thank you again and keep the information coming!

With Respect,

-Rob C.

Chief,
Thanks for being my one and only friend on the website. How are things for you. Things are well in CDA (except the 30+ inches of snow on the ground). How are things for you?

Hey Rick, Just wanted to say hello. I've been so busy with Common Sense Firefighting on here that I haven;t gotten around the rest of it until now
Take care buddy

Also, thanks for the dvd of this years banquet video and stories.
Sure miss you guys...

Happy Thanksgiving, Chief, to you and yours!! A person who has no knowledge of their past is like a tree with no roots. Thank you for growing our fire service roots, brother! After all, being a firefighter is not just what we do, it is who we are!! KTF

Hey Chief,

I just got done listening to your most recent podcast...and would like to ask you for a few minutes of your time to learn about our efforts www.honortheirsacrifices.com

Chief, Hope you had a good trip home. Me & my wife enjoyed meeting you and your class today 11-15-08. It refired my spark for the job even more than what I had. Thanks again!
Take care buddy!

How ya doin' Chief? I miss you!

Hi Chief
Hows things?
Do you guys use any CAFs in Lewisville?

Hey Chief.
sorry it took so long but I just wanted to know if you got the FOOLS shirts or not from Alaska. Sent them to your home. I was wondering if I could get a LFD Pipes and Drums shirt from ya.
