Thanks so much for the work all of you do in your community. In November the home across from us had a fire in the kitchen, an 85-year-old lady left the stove with a pan of grease heating up. When she came back the kitchen was blazing. We saw the smoke and called 911. She and her husband are both okay but the home was lost. Our local Fire Fighters did an A-One job.

Folks, I was born and raised in Honey Brook,Pa and my grandfather was Chief from 1889-1926. I moved away after college and lived in Wilm, De for 35 years, I am good friends with GFD, Past Chief Alan Baldwin. Didn't know if you all were aware that the 1957 B-85 Mack, "General Ike" is now residing in Ocala, Fla. I am editor of our newsletter and want to do an article on the old girl. does anyone have any history of when she served with you all. I do have several photos, but saw one in your history section with six gentlemen standing in front of the rig. Would you all be willing to share that photo with me for my article? If you go on FB to Marion County FR and scroll down to March 11, you will see the presentation to the County Commissioners and the Mack all bright and shiny. If anyone can help me, let me know. Thanks and stay safe up there. To old to ride rigs anymore so that's what I am involved in our club down here. www.fabbfire.org. Thanks
