Twenty five years ago, her father ran toward the danger and never came back. On her wedding day, his fire truck stood in his place, and his memory walked with her.
Beside her stood her mother, who was once a young widow that raised two children alone, watched them grow into thriving adults, and now celebrates them both in happy marriages. That is its own kind of heroism. Forever grateful for his sacrifice, and for the family that carries him forward. 🕯️
