MTD THE REASON IS SAFETY FOR THE FIREFIGHTER’S, MAN POWER AND WATER. AND OUT OF THE 5 STATIONS THAT WAS ONSCENE ONE HAD PAYED FIREFIGHTER THE OTHER 4 ARE VOL. FIRE STATIONS. AND EVERYONE OF THE FIREFIGHTER’S IN ESCAMBIA FIRE PAY TAXS. ESCAMBIA HAS OVER 300 VOL. FIREFIGHTER’S THAT GIVE MORE THEN MONEY. LOOK AT IT THIS MAY IF PEOPLE DIDN’T PAY TAXS LIKE YOU AND ME ESCAMBIA WOULDN’T HAVE FIRE TRUCKS AND EMS. BUT IT WAS ABOUT 2O.OO DOLLARS IN FUEL. WON’T YOU VOL. WE ALWAY NEED MORE FIREFIGHTER’S

To all with negative comments

You must not have experienced a devistation of this nature. Shame on you for being insencitive to the plight of this family. If it had been my TRAILER or HOUSE I would want every available resource to respond no matter the distance they traved to help. Because you were not there you were not aware of all the decisions that had to be made by the firefighters. We ALL pay for the different departments that responded, they are there to help as needed. As a witness to some of the things I saw, the firefighters had a hard time getting water. I am not sure if there was a hydrant closer or if it could be used but a hydrant a mile and a half away was being used to reload the trucks. The injustice to the family for not having a hydrant closer is more crucial than all the trucks and personnel that responded. Just a note in defense of the family this may have been the straw that broke the camels back. It looked as though they also lost a vehicle. Please be a more responsible commentator and be kinder to your fellow man. Prayers are with the family and thank you for your hard work and dedication ….FIREFIGHTERS near and far.

I have read further, and found that after MTD said, ” OK I see your points.YOU win!” some have kept hammering the point. I do not understand why.

Comments on this article must stay on topic. Further discussion into the personal affairs of the family will be tolerated, with the exception of how one might help with donations if they so choose.

MTD asked a good and understandable question. He received some good and understandable answers. Win, win. Patient and sound communication is a very good and helpful thing. I wish I saw it more often. People actually listening to one another.

>>Does anyone have the address of this home. I live on Mckenzie rd. and did not hear anything last night.

The house had an Eastman Lane address off McKenzie, across the railroad tracks from 95A.
