Fast and Efficient Action by Firefighters Is Greatly Appreciated by Princetonian

To the Editor of Town Topics:

I want to express my deep gratitude to the Princeton and Kingston Fire Departments and to the Princeton Borough Police for the speed and efficiency with which they responded to the fire at my home on Hamilton Avenue, Friday morning, November 10.

The fire trucks were in position within five minutes of a neighbor’s phone call and, thanks to extremely fast work, the actual fire was contained to the room of origin. Smoke and water damage was heavy throughout, but the rest of the house was treated with as much care and consideration as the emergency allowed.

All the firefighters, the police, Fire Chief Robert Toole and Borough Fire Official William Drake were kind, courteous and helpful in every way. I cannot imagine a better response in terms of professional effort or human compassion. Thank you most sincerely, one and all.
