Dear Editor,
Having lived in this area all of my life, I have never seen the fires so devastating as this summer. We can never thank our firefighters, first responders, or volunteers ever enough. We need to expose the evil people; the low lifes who start fires are so heartbreaking. There were thousands of us praying for everyone’s safety. I again and again thank you.
