The plans for a cascade system have been dropped at this time. The cost, about $13,000.00 would not justify the times we would use it. We will be going to a four number system for our trucks soon.

PARKER PUBL ICflTlOrt5 kinsihve.. .caring., .unique.. .stubborn.;. witty.. .concerned.. .all these words can be used describe “the Colonel’’ Vince Kennelley. His sudden passing has left a void in our hearts and in the heart of the Village of Fairport that may never be filled. Those who knew Vinny, knew of his deep love for the Village and its residents. As mayor, he placed the good of the Village first in making his decisions-decisions which didn’t necessarily seek public favor. Nonetheless, Vinny always stood firm and never waivered in his convictions. His accomplishments as mayor are many, but the things he will be remembered for most are not political. Vinny was a “people” person who was never impressed with his own title and position, but rather, was moved by the needs of the people around him. Vinny listened, then acted from the heart.His easy way with people always made them feel like he truly cared about their concerns, which he did, and his sense of humor always made difficult situations seem a little less difficult. ' The legacy he leaves behind is one to emulate... to be a good public servant without sacrificing one’s own values and beliefs, to have a strong sense of family and friends, and to never lose sight of who or what you really are. We will always remember Vinny-the man, the mayor, the husband, father, grandfather, and good friend. Good-bye Vinny, we shall all miss you. < ¥ : «Times-Union, Rochester, N.Y., Tuesday.!

Vincent G. kennelley meant it. The popular mayor of Fairport, who aac(ied this week, always said what was on ^)is mind. No evasions, no official-speak. We’d call him about a story and he’d say, “I really can’t talk to you about ^l&at.” Pause. “Ah, what the hell.” And then he’d tell the plain truth.

Fairport-Perinton Herald-Mail, Fairport, N.Y., Wednesday, February 1,1989 3 Letters to the Editor Truck or toy? To the Editor: I am relieved to know that I am not paying for the Fairport Fire Depart ment Truck Committee’s vacation to Florida, nor for their extravagant new toy. Fortunately, my area of Perinton is not part of that fire district. If I lived in the village, my sentiments would be quite different. I suppose that since the taxpayers are shelling out $450 thousand for a 95-foot ladder truck, that the committee thought a few thousand dollars to send them to Florida wouldn’t be noticed. Ostensibly the five men have headed south in the dead of winter to make sure the truck meets specifications before it. ; ia built. This cannot be done in writing? In the purchase contract? In Fairport or through the mail? This requires five people? It would be appropriate to check the truck’s specifications before accept ing delivery, but this month’s excur sion looks like a golf trip. Thanks to the vigilance of this com mittee, citizen’s living and working in Fairport’s nine and 10-story buildings can rest easy. There soon will be a 95- foot ladder truck that can reach them in an emergency. Now all we need is a few nine and 10-story buildings. A new snorkel truck, the type the new vehicle is replacing, would be cheaper, more maneuverable apd less expensive to operate and maintain. But are they made in Florida? . David J. Mallon £3 Black Watch Trail ' Fairport' Fairport-Perinton Herald-Mail, Fairport, N.Y., Wednesday, February 8, 1989 The true facts To the Editor: * I am responding to the letter written by David Mallon on Feb. 1. In Mr. Mal lon’s letter, he tries to state facts about the Fairport Fire Department’s purchase of its new ladder truck. I would person ally like to state the true facts for him and anyone else he may have misled. First, it is true that five members of the fire department went down to Flor ida to check on the specifications of the new truck. This trip happened to save the taxpayers close to $2,000 by finding errors that have occurred through phone calls and also through the mail. (As Mr. Mallon suggests to be an alterna tive to sending men down.) Yes, it would be appropriate to check the trucks’ specifications before accept ing delivery, but what happens if the truck did not meet its specifications and had to stay in the factory for another month or so? What happens in the meantime if we happen to have a major fire and a taxpayer loses their life? Do we tell them that we are sorry, but our snorkel is 19 years old and fre quently out of service, because of lack of parts and service? Do we also tell them that our new ladder truck did not meet its’ specifications and we had to leave it at the factory? Mr. Mallon also stated that the com mittee made a golf excursion out of their trip. This excursion happened to consist of a total of 48 hours, 30 of which was spent in meetings and tours of the factory. Just so you can rest easy, Mr. Mallon, there was no golf played on this trip. He also stated that since the taxpay ers were paying $450,000 for this new turck, they wouldn’t miss a few thou sand dollars to pay for the committee’s trip. Just to set the record straight, the village of Fairport purchased the plane tickets for the committee. These tickets added up to be just over $1,000, which to me seems like a pretty reasonable price. Emergency One (the company that is building the truck) paid for the committee’s hotel and food expenses. I could go on and explain why a new snorkel would not be cheaper to pur chase, and why it would be less expen sive to maintain and operate, but I have my doubts that Mr. Mallon would be able to comprehend this. Yes, thapm^^p Fairport Fire Dis trict can rest'easy knowing that they are being protected by the Fairport Fire Department, and soon their new ladder truck. Also, Mr. Mallon, you stated that you are glad you do not live in the Fair port Fire District. Well, this is one fire fighter that is also glad you do not. Timothy M.

Fox, Secretary SOUTHEAS'I QUADRANi MOBILE CRITICAL CAKE" UimiT ihC. 14(10 1HRK HILL RD. FAIRPORT, N.Y. 14450 223-415 Chief David Gropp Fairport Fire Department 25 East Church Street ( Fairport, N.Y. 14450 Dear Chief Gropp: This is to request that you pass along my sincere appreciation to one of your firefighters, Bill Evans. On Friday, August "16th in the evening, Perinton Ambulance and South-East Quadrant received a call for a person having a heart attack. I responded as the paramedic on Medic 32. Bill was at the scene seconds after the call went out since the location happened to be his next door neighbor. Bill found his neighbor down on the floor with no pulse and he was not breathing. He quickly performed mouth-to-mouth and after 2 attempts, the patient started to breathe. He determined that there might have been a communications problem when he heard the family had called 91 1 and told them their father was "sick". He called Perinton Ambulance on his portable, made sure Advanced Life Support was en-route, and gave us a short update as to what was going on. Even though mouth-to-mouth can be a traumatic experience the first time around, Bill was calm and very professional upon my arrival. He left the patient in the good hands of another firefighter (whose name I do not know) and came out to the ambulance when we pulled up. Bill gave us a quick complete synopsis of what had occurred in the last 5 minutes and led us to the patient. The ambulance crew and I spent less than 10 minutes on the scene with the patient as your firefighters were there to help out. Bill was able to coordinate the firefighters to help lift the patient, carry equipment, and get the patient loaded into the ambulance all while trying to console the family. It was saddening to hear that the patient had passed away the. next morning. However, i am sure that Biii’s actions [which saved the patient's life] had given the patient's family a little more time with him before he was gone. If Bill had not been on the scene so quick, or given the mouth-to-mouth, there would have been a more critical patient waiting for me at the scene that would not have made it until the morning. We welcome trained medical help at critical scenes like this one. It is obvious that Bill's efforts made a difference and so often these people are not recognized. Please take a minute and thank Bill for saving a life. John J.
