Thank you, fire/rescue volunteers

Dear Editor,

Thank you for the prompt response by Killington Volunteer Fire/ Rescue and Regional Ambulance when Howie fell and lost consciousness.

Their response time was amazing, their care and concern comforting. On a day when the snow just didn’t seem to stop it became clear to me that the most important places to keep clear are the entrances to the home— and it may not be just the front door.

Thank you to the first responders and ambulance service who showed up. We cannot appreciate or thank you enough.

Howard and Connie Barbash,Killington
