LETTER TO THE EDITOR Praise from a reader To the Editor, My wife and I really like your new format for The Pennysaver. We like the fact that it has more than just adver- tisements and we really like your double full page pictures of the local sports. We also like the fact that the Westfield News is now deliv- ered in the morning. Beforehand, the evening deliveries were very inconsistent as to when they would arrive. Now, so far, we can count on consistent early morning delivery every day; and we get the added bonus of receiving The Republican, which we had canceled a few years ago. Keep up the good work.

Kind regards, Joe Vaschak

This year’s theme “A Quarter Century of Fire & Life Safety Education: Proven Successes and Future Challenges” looked at major accom- plishments over the past 25 years and looked ahead to future challenges. In 25 years, the average annual number of child fire deaths has dropped 74%, hundreds of thousands of chil- dren have received fire education through the Student Awareness of Fire Education Program, thousands of seniors have had smoke or carbon monoxide alarms installed and received in- home fire safety education. Over 200 firefighter-educators, classroom teachers, elder service workers and injury pre- vention professionals gathered for workshops on teaching fire, life safety and injury preven- tion to all segments of the community, from pre-school children to senior citizens. The 2019 Fire & Life Safety Educator of the Year Award was presented on Sept. 25 to New Bedford and Dartmouth Fire District #3 Firefighter Anthony Poente for his decade of fire education in three fire departments with a combined population of about 130,000. The other nominees recognized for their efforts were: Joan Byington, Woburn Senior Center; FF Katie Harrington, Worcester Fire Department; FF Jeffrey Pugliese, Watertown Fire Department; FF Michelle Sacco, Chelmsford Fire Department; the Southwick Fire Department as a team; FF Alector Tavares, Southwick Fire Safety Officer Lisa Anderson and Southwick Fire Chief Russ Anderson receive recognition Sept. 25 at the 25th Annual Boston Fire Department; and FF Vincent Fire & Life Safety Conference.
