Heartfelt thanks

On November 18, during the early morning hours of an extremely cold day, a fire broke out in one of the buildings on our property. As black smoke poured out of the doors and windows, I dialed 9-1-1. The Sparta, Jefferson and Odgensburg Fire Departments all responded to our call for help. Their task at hand was performed in the most professional and caring manner. Their response time was indeed incredible. Thankfully, no one was injured. There are truly no words to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who was there on that morning. These volunteers truly exemplify the meaning of the word hero. Tom and Francine Baeli Sparta
