Loretta,
He has been a great friend and I think what he does is extremely unselfish. I had actually tried to become a volunteer firefighter after my mother and I were in a bad head on car collision. An off duty firefighter stopped and saved my mother's life so I had wanted to do for someone else what was done for me. Unforetunatly with the damage that was done to my knee when I went for ladder ops training it locked up and popped out of place on the ladder and I had to have one of the other trainees climb up the back of the ladder and literally unlock my leg so I could get down. I made the determination then and there I could not risk that happening in the event on was one the ladder with a child or something who depended on me so I resigned out of the department :-(
Hope you have a great holiday and so very sorry to hear of such a loss :-(
Hugs
April
