Editor:
I want to thank you as well as compliment you for the editorial published Aug. 7, "Fire Safety key."
The editorial was absolutely excellent and the type that we need to promote fire safety. It has been an unusual few months and people do need to focus on prevention. As Gordon Graham, a well know speaker on the risk management, fire and law enforcement circuit states, "Predictable, Preventable." Your editorial drove that concept home!
And, as we push for "whole community" basis of national preparedness, your paper delivers the appropriate and timely message.
Again, many thanks and I look forward to working together with The Aegis to promote safety for our citizens.

Harford County Department of Emergency Services
