Speaker 1 (00:01):
So let me just get into this right now. Sistney
and Michael. They have a friend named Levi, and I
think you've mentioned him. He's a firefighter and Alsagoon.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
No you talking about him, I have.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
He and his fellow heroes have been desperately trying to
save Holmes, and they left a note at one of
the houses they saved, and I just want to read
it to you, So here it is. It's in handwritten,
you know. One eight twenty five is the date in
the top right corner to him in a concern. We're
so sorry for the devastation your neighborhood has endured. It

(00:33):
is truly heartbreaking and we can only imagine the toll
it's taken on everyone affected. When we returned a few
days later, it brought us great relief to see that
we were able to save your house. The house to
the right of you was completely gone and the fence
was burning about to catch your house on fire. We
stopped the fire from burning through your side door and

(00:55):
kept the fire from your deck and roof. Since and then,
our team has found solace on your deck, gazing out
at the beautiful Pacific Ocean. It has offered a moment
of calm amidst the chaos. We want you to know
and your neighbors to know you are in our thoughts

(01:15):
as you rebuild and recover. The pink ribbon, if it
is still there, means the house was a saves.

Speaker 2 (01:27):

Speaker 1 (01:31):
The house was a save and it gave us pride
to hang it with love and support. El Segundo Fire Department,
Engine thirty one C Platoon Levi, Steve, Matt and Jason.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
It's the courage that these fighters have had. And he's
been sending us like images of like how he's sleeping
and not even sleeping. It's like they're just sleeping in
the car on the floor and they just haven't stopped.
They've been going non stop.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
But to take the time to articulate that and to
put up the pink ribbon and to have that moment
of calm amidst the chaos, it's just the most beautiful.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Do you see the thumb of like him holding the note.
Do you see his fingers.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
It's charred and it's black. Yeah, right, I do see it.
I mean his his his thumb is black from fighting
the fires and the smoke. That's just a it's a beautiful,
beautiful letter, and I don't there's no words to say
thank you. I mean word, thank you doesn't do it,
doesn't do it. We'll come back here. Kiss,
