My position with Georgia Arson Control has led me to meet many amazing and wonderful people. Recently, I came in contact with a group of ladies in Houston County. They make quilts. Not to sell, but to give away to people suffering from a fire. They have been donating quilts to Houston County and other local fire departments for some time now. I have been blessed to help deliver some of their love to Fire Departments in North Georgia. Thank you to the Firehouse Quilters of Houston County! The ripples of your compassion towards fire victims has no boundaries.
