This is a great initiative by Greenville Fire Rescue to help keep their community as safe as possible!

I highly recommend anyone within the service district take advantage. It's free and minutes in an emergency can mean life or death.

Feel Good Friday

Last month, Wylie ISD teacher Rosanna Strickland was involved in a head-on collision on FM 982 near Princeton. The first person to discover the scene, an off-duty police officer, quickly climbed into Rosanna’s vehicle to help. When it became evident that Rosanna was stuck, the officer tended to her injuries and prayed with her while they waited for first responders to arrive. That off-duty officer? Our very own Lt. Flatt.

In a wonderfully surprising development, Rosanna later learned that Lt. Flatt’s daughter, Ashlee, is one of the nurses at the hospital now helping her recover.

Lt. Flatt’s heroic and selfless acts are a true reflection of his character and demonstrate the positive impact he makes in our community, both on and off duty. We applaud and thank Lt. Flatt for his quick thinking and compassion while responding to the collision. Lt. Flatt will receive the Princeton Police Department’s Civic Achievement Award for his actions.

A city's strength lies in the men and women who serve and protect it. Greenville lost a good one with the passing of Officer Cooper Dawson this week.

Our sincerest prayers go out to Officer Cooper Dawson's family as well as the entire Greenville and Garland Police Departments.

A LODD is never easy but this one stings exceptionally more being one of our own. As a community, I hope we come together to embrace the Dawson family and support each other anyway we can.

Memorial Account information is below.

Everyone thinks it's the weird guy in the shadows or the van with free candy and puppies.... That's hardly ever the case.

Come listen to some great information about protecting your children.
