I have lived at 219 Carroll St. for 53 years, next door to the house that burned down Oct. 16. It was extremely hard to watch knowing that my home could go at any minute.

Due to the fantastic hard work of the firemen and the blessing of the lord Jesus Christ my house was spared. My prayers go out to Mr. and Mrs. Trottier; they were wonderful neighbors.

Thank you again.
