have been busy the past few weeks, on my days off of course, but wanted
all that love our dogs to hear this one. We had been given the
remaining resuscitation masks that a friend had purchased to give to our
local fire depts. We had bought 2 for our FD, so we got busy making
sure all the Southern Idaho Fire Departments were equipped with them.
Last Monday, we made sure that the Fruitland & Payette Depts got
theirs. This Friday morning, only 4 days after having them, we got a
call from Payette's Chief, thanking us for getting the set of three
oxygen masks to them, as they had a bad fire Thursday evening, and
because they had our masks, they saved 6 dogs in that fire ... all were
doing great! I have since ordered them a second set for their new truck
as they are a growing community. I always tell them that I hope they
never
have to use them, but in Cassie's memory, we want all depts to be ready
if they need to be used. We have been written up for this in many of
the local papers, and the newsletter I do once a month for my job is
getting my write-up this month, too. Yesterday, the fire chief from
Fruitland stopped by with a beautiful thank you certificate for us. I am
really missing my little girl right now, but I know she is watching me
from that bridge, is proud of me, and wants everyone to know the good
thing I am doing in her name ... thanks for letting me tell you all
about this. <br></span></div><div> </div><div id="yiv2042669694RTEContent"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div style="font-weight:bold;color:rgb(0, 127, 127);"><font face="comic sans ms" size="3">Barb </font></div><div style="font-weight:bold;color:rgb(0, 127, 127);"><font face="Comic Sans MS" size="3">Fred, Matilda,Harley & Cassie,ATB<br><br></font></div><span style="color:rgb(0, 127,
