Alison and I were saddened to hear about the loss of Chief "L.G". Sesso. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time. We both have a lot of great memories of Larry (some that probably shouldn't be shared!)and will miss him, what a loss for the Department and Larry's family and friends, so sad.

After Sandy, we were unable to reach our Mom, who lives in the Windmill Gate section of Oakdale. We were so worried because the phones were out! We called your station and you didn't hesitate and went over to her home to check on her. We spoke to her on the phone and she was just fine. What a relief to us to know that all was well. Although we still haven't been able to talk to her because the phone lines are still down, we want to thank you for your time and effort! It was definatelly appreciated. We hope everyone is ok and our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

A true show of Brotherhood. When the Firefighters come to show there respect for a fellow Firefighters family.
