Family

Submitted by: Ryland McNutt

This song definitely touches my family as we are a list of first responders. My grandfather was one of the founding members of the Bible Hill Fire Brigade in 1946. Then once my father was of age he joined the same brigade before joining the DND Fire Service to serve the Station in Debert. My other grandfather was also a fire fighter in Brooklyn Hants County. Once my mother met my father and they moved to Debert NS they both joined the Debert Fire Brigade. Once the base closed and we moved back to Bible Hill my father and mother both joined Bible Hill. Once I was 19 I also started my fire service time with Bible Hill therefore keeping it a family thing. After I returned from college studying Police Foundations in Ottawa I joined the Special Hazards Response Unit. A group that does Haz Mat calls as well as Water rescue, Confined Space and High Angle rescue. I am soon Hoping to join the ranks of the RCMP. As you can tell helping people is very much a family thing,
