"Firefighters are not just heroes in the face of flames; they are the embodiment of courage, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication. They run towards danger when others run away, and in their hands, our safety and hope are held secure. To our brave firefighters, thank you for your relentless service and for lighting the path with your bravery."
