Thank you for being there, and taking pictures and everything. It means so much to those of us who could not be there. All those pews that look empty? They are really filled by all of us in thought, and I hope all his Ohio friends and Nancy know that.

Thank you so much for posting all the links, Staci. I thought about Phred and you guys all day and your posts make me feel like maybe I was there just a little bit today. Sitting here in tears now thinking about how real this all is now. Its heartbreaking to think of him not posting here at PT and not being at the Findlay gatherings.

Fireman’s Prayer

When I am called to duty, God,
wherever flames may rage,
give me strength to save a life,
whatever be its age.
Help me embrace a little child
before it is too late,
or save an older person from
the horror of that fate.
Enable me to be alert,
and hear the weakest shout,
quickly and efficiently
to put the fire out.
I want to fill my calling,
to give the best in me,
to guard my friend and neighbor,
and protect his property.
And if according to Your will
I must answer death's call,
bless with Your protecting hand,
my family one and all.

Thanks Staci,

Been thinking about Phred today - thanks to all of you who were able to get there for carrying our love for Phred and our sympathy to his family & friends. LES again, seeing the videos and hearing the firemen's stories. I'll bet Phred had a good laugh "up there" as he listened in.
