I imagine by now that most has heard about the tragedy here in Charleston, SC that took the lives of 9 of our firefighters. Well, I have personally been affected by this as my Dad is a Chief for the Charleston Fire Department and was at that fire.

That night, as he took on the flames, reports were casted on the news that several firefighters were missing and several were dead. I sat at home scared, nervous, and afraid of how my Dad was. I had no way of confirming he was okay or amongst one of the missing/dead.
Finally, around 4:30 am my Dad called me to let me know he was okay. There's more to this story but I at least wanted to apologize for this page not being updated. As you can imagine this has been a long and rough week for us (especially my Dad).
I want to thank the Charleston Fire Department for their brave service and most of all I'd like to say:
I love you Dad. You are my Hero.
