Things have been sad here. Last week my daughter Michelle lost a friend, Nick Piccossi .( the also went to school together and were on the Jr. High track team together )  She and her husband, Mike are firefighters. Although neither one was at this fire it doesn't make the loss any less. Christina's fiance, Chris was there and had his hand burnt. It was a house fire. Nick leaves behind a wife, two sons , his mom and dad. Just the thought kind of upsets me, it could have been my daugter, her husband if they had been there. Chris hurt his hand/wrist it could have been worse. Just thinking about it , I want to hit the fridge to see what there is. I know there isn't much I can do except watch the little ones Tyler and Cydney when I am needed. Since it was "in the line of duty" the arrangements ( I am told) are made by the firefighter association ( Chris is an officer and Michelle is a trustee ) so things have been hectic. I think the news will tape some of it. They were at our house on Wed. night looking for Chris after it happened. Then I heard that they were at Nicks parents house looking for comments also. Nicks dad was admitted to the hospital , he had a heart attack when they were at the hospital waiting for the news about Nick. His mom wasn't doing well either. 

I just hope his family will get through this with the help of family and friends.
My Condolences go out to his Family.
