I want to take this opportunity to thank you and the Firefighters of Southern Nevada Burn Foundation for your help with this year's "9/11 Firefighters Remembrance Event".

This year's turnout was the largest ever and it was an amazing and emotional evening. It is a proud moment to see an event like this that was put together by firefighters for firefighters.

I have received nothing but positive compliments and feedback from the Firefighters that were there, the general public and the NYNY.

Thanks again,
Mike Tomko

As of May first 2009, the Stringer family has come a long way towards recovering from the devastating fire.

At this time I would like to personally thank all of those folks that assisted in any way during our families time of need. I would like to especially thank Mike Mossel, Nate Pehcacek, Nino Galloway and the other members of the burn foundation for all of there personal attention and assistance. A special thank you to all the dispatch and communications division personnel for their donation from the " Dispatchers Fund". Thank you to Kyle Cardinal and Charlie Lee for assistance with furniture and all of the other incredibly generous members of our department for all they do.

I have many times seen the brother/sister hood in action in assisting those in need but this is the first time I have witnessed first hand how truly generous, caring and giving you all really are. God bless all and thank you again.
