Chief Mauro & EMTBravo

[x635 4,066]

Members,

I am regretful that I didn't do more to honor Chief Mauro on this site.

Although I was somewhat active on the forum this week, I've been working long shifts with a major event, South By Southwest, in town. I had meant to, but time became blurred to me, and before I knew it, all the memorial services were over.

I would just like to share a reflection of Chief Mauro. When I was a firefighter in Hartsdale and assigned to TL-15 when it was out of service, therefore having to go to Fairview and ride with L-1. We were eating breakfast in the kitchen of Station 1, and Chief Mauro came in. He told me how much he loved EMTBravo, he liked being on the "pulse" of what was going on, and he liked to see what people on the street were thinking. I felt very honored that a longtime tenured cheif respected the site so much. Especially since he was older, and this was before Facebook and Twitter, that he visited the site multiple times each day.

One of the many reasons why Fairview FD is such a progressive department, and why they employ so many smart and caring minds.
