SHARON HILL — Kevin and Phyllis Crane, owners of Best of Delco Kids Connection Learning Center in Sharon Hill, made a $1,000 donation to the Sharon Hill Fire Company from their annual fundraiser. A check was presented at the center to Fire Chief Joseph Bourgeois and Lt. Faraan Johnson.
Bourgeois brought along one of the department’s tanker trucks for the children to enjoy. He also talked to them about what firefighters do in their jobs. “We have a great deal of respect and admiration for the members of the Sharon Hill Fire Department,” stated owner Phyllis Crane.
“They put their lives on the line each time they come to a fire, accident scene, and various other dangerous services. We, along with our staff and families at the center, very much appreciate these heroes.” The all-volunteer station at 230 Sharon Ave.
was founded on Oct. 3, 1906. Currently, the station operates two Class A pumpers, a mini pumper, a Spill Unit and a Command Unit.
