Don,
Taking the ladder truck would be the ultimate salute for that little boy and more importantly his family!
It's only 50 miles one way and I'm sure you'll make it! Plus I'm sure there will be a higher power riding shotgun.
I know if it were myself, I'd be there somehow someway. What a shame, 7yrs old!
I can't even imagine what his famy is going through
God speed my friend!
Jim
