Not Car related but still an achievment for Jack Quinn

Post by Denver 59 Fin Convert »

Sorry to do stuff that's not car stuff but just proud for our son tonight. My 21 year old son Jack (John A.) was sworn in as a Fire Fighter tonight. A big day for the family. Thought I would share something about us that is not car related. Jack has helped me in the 59 a little so it's kinda related...

Jack's Great Great Grandfather was Fire Chief in Detroit in the late 1890's early 1900's And his Great Grandfather was a policeman in NYC in the 20's thru the 50's. I guess Public service runs in the family. Not with me but with others! :lol:

Thanks for enduring my pride in my son's acheivement

Congratulations to Jack. Public Service was my game for 31 years and it served me well. Great story/background John.
Thanks for sharing.
