X. Kind Words <br />2014 Annual Report · Fire Department · St. Anthony Village, Minnesota <br />15 <br />X. Kind WordsX. Kind Words <br />Every day the men and women of the St. Anthony Fire <br />Department put on their invisible “serving the community” hat <br />when they walk out their door. It is a hat that they had no <br />say or choice as to if they wanted it or not. One day that hat <br />was on their head without them even knowing it and what is <br />so great about it is that it fi ts so nicely. The members of this <br />department do what they do because they value community, <br />they value people, and they value making a difference big or <br />small. These folks are not looking for headlines or an “Atta <br />Boy”, but sometimes kind words are received via a card or <br />an email. Below I have included some of the words that have <br />been sent from people who have been recipients of the work of <br />these members: <br />“Thank you so much for all you did and <br />do to help make us feel bit safer in St. <br />Anthony Village. I know this is your job, <br />but I saw how you take it very seriously <br />and are willing to risk your health to <br />help others.” <br />“Th ank you so much for being such an <br />inspiration. You have no idea how much <br />you have helped me follow my dreams.” <br />“Your department h <br />a <br />s <br /> <br />b <br />e <br />e <br />n <br /> <br />a <br /> <br />c <br />o <br />m <br />m <br />u <br />n <br />i <br />t <br />y <br /> <br />asset to demonstrate <br />t <br />h <br />a <br />t <br /> <br />S <br />t <br />. <br /> <br />A <br />n <br />t <br />h <br />o <br />n <br />y <br /> <br />i <br />s <br /> <br />a <br /> <br />caring community.” <br />“Thank you so much for <br />keeping our community <br />strong and safe.” <br />oo rr is k k yoyo urur hh eaea <br />“Thank you for taking such goo <br />d <br /> <br />c <br />a <br />r <br />e <br /> <br />o <br />f <br /> <br />o <br />u <br />r <br /> <br />c <br />o <br />m <br />m <br />u <br />n <br />i <br />t <br />y <br />. <br />” <br />uch for <br />“We want to thank the men a <br />n <br />d <br /> <br />w <br />o <br />m <br />e <br />n <br /> <br />that helped our son.
