- I Live: (City, State)
- Kokomo, Indiana
- Years in Fire/EMS:
- 27
- Why I Joined the Fire/EMS:
- My dad and my brother were career firefighters for over twenty years. I lost my dad in 1994 after a heart attack, and I lost my brother to cancer in 2006 while he was still an active firefighter.
I began my EMS career in 1981 and let the family tradition of eating smoke fall to the wayside, until recently.
This page, and my decision to become a firefighter, are both dedicated to the memory of these two great guys, both of whom I miss very much.
