LETTERS: Firefighter explains use of photos

LETTERS: Accidents highlight dangers of poor driving on Pompey Center Road

Many thanks are extended to the 13 former Van Buren School gym class “kids” for helping me collect bottles and cans on Dec. 3, 2011. The kids presently are men and women in their 30s, 40s and 50s who helped me to collect $533 to benefit the Baldwinsville Christmas Bureau.

While growing up in this tight-knit community and graduating from Skaneateles High School, I developed a strong and sincere desire to care for and help others. It has been my family and friends and the people of Skaneateles who I owe much of the credit to for paving the path to where I am today.
