Hi Christine, just finished reading the Inspire section of the StarTribune. There is an interview with George Esbensen, retired Eden Prairie fire chief, who is advocating for a program to help mitigate the health effects of being a firefighter. Christine, my respect for Josh and admiration for you and your family has been lifted to a new level. Thank you and God Bless you during this journey without Josh.

Christine, I love the words you write from your heart. You have a wonderful way of expressing yourself. Dan and I think of you and your family often.

Oh Christine, one of many firsts. I pray that God holds you tight through this difficult season of your grief journey.

My belief is Josh has been at every call since going home. I feel his presence and know he is watching over us. Hugs from all of us at GVFD

Thank you for sharing every one of these stories.
