Thanks for help during Olive Hill fire

April 18, 2012 — The editor:

    I would like to thank all persons involved who helped me during the night of the recent devastating fire in Olive Hill.

    First and foremost I would like to thank ALL the volunteer firefighters who responded so quickly and protected my place of business from being destroyed. I cannot say thank you enough for all you have done, and all that you do.

    Secondly, I would like to thank my family who came to my aid in time of need, to help retrieve items and equipment from my building. Other individuals such as: Jeff Bond, Larry Joe Ruley, Rena Walker, Myrt Collins and Danni Eldridge, who also provided much appreciated assistance. I apologize if I have forgotten to mention others who may have helped also.

    With sincere appreciation,

    Patrick Flannery
