    Thanks to all the fire fighters who responded so quickly. May God Bless everyone of you and keep you all safe. I was on my way home when my son called me and told me we had a fire and he was calling the fire department. when I got home all I seen was fire trucks everywhere!!! I have the utmost respect for all that had part in saving my home. The owner.

    The house was covered in prayers. Look in the window and above the firemans head, what do you see, a CROSS. This is a testimony for all of us.
    Thank you Lord that you give your angels charge over me to guard me in all my ways. Praise his name.
