Thank you all so very much for rescuing our cat.

I'm well aware that you all have many more important things to do and that you took your valuable time to help us.

As I told you, I lost my husband in July and this was his cat. This was just one more trauma for our family.

This day you made a huge difference to our family.

Thank you once again.

Great website
Any Vehicles for sale ? We purchased a Hahn Engine from you back in 2000, its still in service but not doing too well (we have been pursuing a AFG grant for 3 yrs now with no luck.)

Enjoyed the site thanks, TK

Hi there,
I just wanted to compliment a gentleman that was working as a Mt. Airy fireman a few weeks back.

I was exiting the Safeway shopping center, headed North on Rt 27 about 8:30am. There had been (what looked like) a small collision involving an older gentleman, who was standing outside his car talking to a fireman.

I saw the fireman speaking to the older gentleman, who was visually upset, and I saw the fireman reach out, and with care, give the man a gentle pat on the back. It was a small gesture, but a huge statement of care and compassion.

It just made me smile, to know that there are still people out there who care, and that you guys are there to show help and compassion when it's needed.

Thank you to whomever I happened to witness being "kind" to a fellow human being.

Bless you all for taking such great care of me on the way to Shock Trauma transport last week. Besides extraordinarily skillful, you all are true angels.
I am so very grateful.

Thank you to all who helped save Lady. God Bless you! (Reference to Dog Rescue Story of 09/26/2016)

I signed your guestbook a few years back I dropped by to say hi and wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Great New Year. Stay safe
Regards Paul

My husband was a life member at your fire department and we lived in and near Mt. Airy for over 40 years. Your company turned out for a memorial service when he died in 2009 and his casket was driven to the cemetery on an engine. I just looked up your site to get a date for the carnival. The site is great. I now live in Hampstead and miss Mt. Airy. Good luck and stay safe.

Nice Page...

Thank you for all you do. We appreciate your dedication and hard work. You guys rock!

Very nice website.

Just was looking at your new pumper and like to look at the dept and area that is served. Thanks to Google maps and internet. High Ridge just received their new rescue pumper from Rosenbauer 2 weeks ago. This will be our second one. Your site is awesome and I like the location of your new firehouse and how well it's planned out. I'd be out always looking at the view.
Retired Dec. 2010 with 40 total yrs. as vol. and parttime. Enjoyed every minute of it. Be careful, Be safe and God bless.
Thanks,
Dennis Turner

I saw FF Donald Simmons on the news this evening and thought, "There is my angel". I always wondered what fire station he was at because I always wanted to Thank him. In 2000 I called 911 because my 12 month old baby was seemingly choking on a penny. I called 911 and while I was on the phone still talking to the dispatcher I heard the loudest pounding on the stairs outside my condo. It was Donald Simmons who was my neighbor, charging up the stairs to help. He heard it on the fire radio and came up in a second. Thankfully the baby was not choking and could still breathe but I was scared to death. He coughed up the penny and FF Simmons got on the phone to tell them everything was okay and I didn't need them to come out.
He moved away first and then we moved from there but I think of him often and how fast he came to the rescue. I am the Grandaughter of former Silver Spring Fire Chief John A Gilson ( deceased)
and My father is DCFD retired and my brother is cuurently a DC Firefighter. Firefighters will always be my hero's especially FF Simmons.

And that baby is now almost 12 years old and 5 '4" tall. Thank you so much Donald Simmons.
Grateful mom,
Janice Hicks

THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS TO ALL OF YOUR MEMBERS AND THEIR FAMILIES IN THIS TRYING TIME...

I am deeply saddened by your loss. As a former Junior myself I fully understand the void that has been created.

The Junior division is the backbone and the future of a department and hopefully they will survive. I'm very glad to hear that the department has started counseling services.

After many years in the fire service, I now understand the importance of this. Never forget.

I am deeply sorry for your loss of Charlie. My heart goes out to you guys and his family. You are in my thoughts and prays. A act like this pains me, because a young man with a great future ahead of him has been take for no reason. You guys with be in my prays.

Sorry for the loss of your dear friend and junior firefighter Charlie. Our prayers will be with you and the family.

My heart goes out to all those who responded to the Dalton home. Charlie will be missed.

Congratulations and much appreciation for the spectacular fireworks display on July 25, 2009

Ivan - just checked out your video - great job - you can be proud of your department. Tobe

I haven't been there in about ten years. I like your new station!! I worked with Frederick Fire/Rescue in 1995, and used to hang up your way back then! Also was in PG County.

Good Site. Fire Fighters/Rescuers Real Heroes.
