Mount Vernon Fire Affects Local MOS's

[x635 4,066]

Yesterday's fire in Mount Vernon at 27 Roosvelt Sqaure affected 2 of our own.

Novil Kittil, Mount Vernon FD Probie, Port Chester EMS Paramedic and Empress EMS Paramedic, and Greg Valdez, Empress EMS EMT, both had an apartment directly above the fire floor. Their apartment, and contents, are were mostly a loss, and Greg's dog was sadly a victim of the fire.

Novil (can be seen flexing in our latest class photos on the site) is scheduled to graduate next week from Probie Class 03-2005, and will hit the streets as a FF in MV shortly thereafter. He made our class party last night, after the fire, and was last seen having a very good time.

Both's spirits are high, but please keep both in your thoughts. We are the public we serve too sometimes.

They are bother taken care of right now, there has been an great outpouring of support from the agencies that love these two, and information on a collection should be available shortly.
