Today was the Methuen Firefighters Memorial, held at the Central Station. The weather was not cooperative, so the service was held indoors. The Firefighters put out a hearty breakfast for after the Memorial that is always delicious. I posted a few photos on Facebook, and I already had one wiseacre ask if I had brought along a food taster. I will have everyone know that the Firefighters specifically told me that they had made a “special plate” for me. Unfortunately a scheduling conflict forced me to leave before I could consume that breakfast plate. It was a nice ceremony, and the last one for Fire Chief Cliff Gallant as Chief. He retires at the end of this month. Thank you to the Firefighters for their hospitality.
