Sayville Fire Department Helps in Welcoming Home Local Soldier
By Firefighter Ken Kotkeiwicz
May 16, 2009
On Saturday May 16 Sayville Helped Welcome home injured Soldier Chris Levi from Afghanistan. Approximately 38 Tower Ladders from departments throughout the island were deployed for a true hero's welcome.
Chris lost both of his legs above the knee when a roadside bomb exploded under his Humvee. He has spent more than a year at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington DC healing from his wounds. While he was away, volunteers organized by members of the Holbrook Fire Department built a handicapped-accessible apartment in the lower level of his parents home. Donations ranging from lumber to labor helped pay for the estimated $150,000 renovation.
WELCOME HOME AND THANK YOU CHRIS LEVI!
