Have A Safe & Joyful Holiday

The Holiday season is typically regarded as extending from late November to early January and includes Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, and New Year’s Day. Using the latest 3 years of data, the yearly estimated fire loss for December 24, 25, and 26 is estimated at over $80 million. Each year, these losses result from an estimated 11,600 fires that required a fire department response. These fires cause an annual average of approximately 250 injuries and 40 fatalities.

This is alarming and I guess my reason for adding this may be more a buffer for my own personal alarm system, to say to you, I love you and please have a safe Holiday, and a joyful, time with family and friends. I pray that we can slow down and not be stressed in the many preparations of this season, but truly 'be' with each of our family and friends. To connect with each heart. All the decorations, the food, the plans will never be important compared to our hearts coming together.
