THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE I WOULD LIKE TO THANK FOR ALL THAT THEY DO FOR THE LINCOLN PARISH FIRE DEPARTMENT AND SOMETIMES I GET BUSY AND DON’T THANK THE ONES THAT REALLY DO A LOT FOR THE DEPARTMENT AND FOR ME PERSONALLY. SO THIS THANKS GOES OUT TO MR. JIM HILTON FOR ALL HE DOES FOR THE FIRE DISTRICT AND FOR ME AND HE IS THE ONE WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR WEBSITE AND I KNOW HE DOESN’T WANT ANY THANKS BUT JIM YOU DON’T KNOW HOW MUCH I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU DO. I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THANKS TO ALL OF THE VOLUNTEERS, PAID PERSONNEL AND OUR COMMISSIONERS FOR ALL OF THEIR HARD WORK AND DETERMINATION DURING OUR RATING AND DURING THE LAST 3 YEARS THAT I HAVE BEEN THE CHIEF AND I WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT IT IS AN HONOR AND A PRIVILEDGE TO BE YOUR CHIEF AND YOUR FRIEND. I WANT MY WIFE AND KIDS TO KNOW THAT I APPRECIATE THEM STANDING BY MY SIDE DURING THESE LAST 3 YEARS AND UNDERSTANDING WHENEVER I AM GONE TO FIRES OR AT WORK. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO HAVE PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELVES STANDING BESIDE ME DURING OUR JOURNEY HERE IN LINCOLN PARISH. LAST BUT MOST IMPORTANT I WANT TO THANK GOD FOR ALLOWING ME THE OPPORTUNITY OF SERVING IN THE WAY I DO AND FOR GIVING ME THE RIGHT PERSONNEL TO GET THE JOB DONE. SO REMEMBER I WILL ALWAYS HAVE AN OPEN DOOR POLICY AND I WILL ALWAYS HAVE AN EAR FOR YOU IF YOU JUST NEED TO TALK.
THANKS AGAIN,
DENNIS FORD
L.P.F.D.
