Somerset Fire Cheif Passes

Such a tragedy in Somerset today. The fire Cheif, Scott Jepson passed away at the age of 54 from injuries he sustained from an accident at his home in Dighton shortly after noon today. He was such a great guy and a good chief as well, liked and respected by the entire fire service, the town of Somerset and the surrounding communities. You will be sorely missed my friend. My thoughts and prayers are with his wife Angie and his teen aged son Ian.

That is awful, sorry to hear that and sorry for your loss.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

This is so much more than meets the eye. He apparently took his own life with a gun shot to the chest. Absolutely horrible. And the worst part is his 14 year old son found him. You never know what someone is battling, we see a lot in this profession but always put on a happy face. Sometimes things get to you and they compound....quickly. We may never know what his demons were, or what he was battling, but it was enough to put him at rest. Truly going to be a tough funeral to march in.
