Letter: Big thanks to Westport fire and highway departments

Posted

We want to thank the Westport Fire Department for their dedication and sacrifice in fighting the brush fire on our property Friday, April 14. They spent four hours extinguishing the fire and making sure our house was not involved. Our thanks to the Westport Highway Department who assisted by cutting down several large trees. And we are grateful to the person who reported the fire. Without a quick response the outcome could have been much worse.

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
