Begin to End.

Begin to End.

 

This post is in honor my ex brother-in-law Randy, a retired Fire Chief who lost a valiant fight to cancer. He became a child advocate for those in dangerous situations, who were neglected or abused. He was their voice and saving grace.

 

We need more people willing to bravely speak up like him, even when standing alone.

 

As industry professionals, we must also speak up to better local Board offices, serve on committees and report unethical behavior. This improves the standard of business for all. Remaining quiet may mean a yes or no, whether intended.

 

Martin Luther King Jr. lived by his words daily as should we. Do you agree?

 

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter. ~ Martin Luther King Jr.

Hello Wanda, I am so sorry for your loss of a greta man.  Fire chiefs have to know so much and take on lots of classes and be a great leader.

Wanda, 

What a wonderful tribute to Randy.  Martin was right, once we become silent on things that matter, our lives do start to end

He was a super hero in every sense of the word except he didn't wear a cape Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD. He blessed children with the dedication and support they deserved but never received from their birth parents.

Will Hamm, he used to travel to the Middle East to train their fire departments how to manage fires. He is very much missed and contributed to society in many ways! We need more people like him!

He was a true child advocate Nick Vandekar, 610-203-4543 and would break down and cry some days when the justice system failed these little beings and then was right back at it to help the ones he could!
