Impressed with Harrison FD

To the Editor:

I had the unfortunate experience on Saturday, November 24, of having a very serious fire at my home in Harrison. Although this was very traumatic, I must say how impressed I was with the professionalism, expertise and efficiency of the Harrison Fire Department and the other departments who worked with them.

It is obvious that they spend many hours training and learning to work together. Every person knew his role and performed it with precision and expertise.

I hope you never have this experience, but if you do, be assured that you will be helped by a fine group of volunteers who will do their absolute best to save lives and property and will do so with professionalism, empathy and compassion.

Steve and I also want to thank everyone who has offered their help and support as we work our way through this. Friends and even people we haven't met have made it

Maine may have difficult winters, but I believe Maine also has the finest people on the planet and we are very fortunate to live here.
