Feedback: Aiden has a great role model

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

Grant Loy is my nephew and Aiden's first cousin. We think Grant is the best junior firefighter. He is ready when the fire alarm sounds.

I can't wait until Aiden gets older because I believe Aiden will walk in Grant's footsteps and Grant will be able to teach Aiden the skills of fighting and preventing fires.

Love you Grant, Susan Lewis, Aunt "MeMe," and Aiden
