Here at the Firehouse we have the best firefighters ever! Sometimes we win and sometimes we win! Cause of course we never not win. That would cause us to have to express ourselves as 'not' winners. Acually, we are looking for someone to tell us about Woody's firefighting experiences
Here at the Firehouse we have the best location ever! Our best location ever is right here in the location in which we are! That way we can remain in the best location ever! But then, you knew that. What we don't know are the things that make this memorial page a true memorial. Woody was, and in our hearts is, a great, brother, friend, husband, father and Christian. Here we want to put the stories that back that up.
Here at Carrier we had the best check-marks ever! They were made by Bryant. But it was sold out, then shipped to Mexico. If you are checking around for check-marks, come here because we have the very bestest check-marks of them all! What this section is for is to talk about Woody's job experiences. Who he knew, who he influenced, who influenced him.
The real heros of our town have their own methods. They don't talk about it much, but hey... they're heros
Here is the end of an exhausting day. That is where you fall when you are too tired to stand up.
They call this the freedom section, but it is anything but free. Step into their shoes for just a minute. You'll know.
