“Fighting cystic fibrosis takes teamwork; much as my firefighters fight each day to save lives the CF Foundation works to raise the funds needed to assist families in need as well as the physicians and researchers looking for the ultimate cure. I’m very excited about being a part of this year’s campaign, fighting with the team for CF.”
 
“The brotherhood of the fire service is considered by most to be a close knit family. When a firefighter needs help the family pulls together to help them no matter what. Fighting cystic fibrosis is no different. Knowing that one of our own firefighter’s families is affected by CF makes this ‘our’ fight now. I am proud to carry the flag this year to make the campaign the best it can be.”
