Remembering you and your family - 11 years later - I worked in the Public Safety Building and had friends in the Fire Department as well as a brother who had worked at that fire station. I knew some of the firefighters from that fateful night. Tom - you and your family will never be forgotten. Sincerely, Kris Buschau-Lapointe - Posted by: Kris Buschau-Lapointe (Acquaintance ) on: Feb 04, 2018
