What was an over 2 1/2 drive from North Jersey to Lower Cape May, NJ was well worth as we spoke at Lower Cape May Regional High School for the very first time speaking to the seniors as they prepare to head to prom tomorrow and graduate in a few weeks. This program sponsored by the 3 volunteer fire departments including @ermafireco was well received by the students as we shared intimate details of our recovery. We wish you all the best as you go forward in life and we hope you never have to use any of the tips we provided. But always remember that each day is a blessing and to never take it for granted.

They showed enormous grit and discipline. #GoPirates #setonhallbasketball EVERYTHING IS #GODSWILL #setonhall #nitchampions #nitchampionship #shupirates #PaleHorseRider

Starting the week off at Tenafly High School presenting “After the Fire” to the Class of 2024. This is our 2nd visit to the school but it has been over 8 years since we have returned thanks to the sponsorship of the Bergen County Interborough Mutual Fire Association and the Tenafly Vol. Fire Department. To all the seniors, we hope you take some of our tips and messages and use them not only on your college campus but in everyday life. We truly care about each and everyone of you and we pray that you never have to experience anything close to what we went through but we also know that you are strong enough to get through anything.
