When a man becomes a fireman his greatest act of bravery has been accomplished. What he does after that is all in the line of work.

The charming seniors at Towne Creek Apartments hosted their second annual appreciation lunch for the McKinney firefighters. They spent the morning decorating, cooking, baking and preparing for the festivities. Everyone cheered each time another group of firemen and administrators stopped by. It was nice to see the handsome men in blue for a celebration instead of the many emergency situations. Yes, it was nice to say thank you.
After sharing a wonderful lunch of homemade salads, beans, pasta, pies, cakes and some delicious Dickey’s barbecue, there was a ton of yummy food left over. So, we packed it all up in dozens of containers and Miss Nelma and I drove over to three different fire stations that were unable to attend the lunch, and dropped of a huge bag of food. Each station was extremely appreciative.

A group photo with the guys at Station #5. These are my guys. They’ve seen many a brownie or cupcake.
It was a full day of appreciation and saying thank you to those who do so much for us. Thanks guys and gals in blue!
