Political Quotes

“Today I rise to honor Marsha Giesler, an Illinois native and a recipient of the 2012 National Fire Protection Association's Fire and Life Safety Educator of the Year award. Marsha serves as the Downers Grove Fire Department public information officer, and in that role she coordinates with emergency service personnel to provide Downers Grove residents with valuable, lifesaving information and safety-related materials. She is also assistant to the chief and a juvenile fire interventionist. To help others promote safety within their own communities, she published a 400-page reference book, ``Fire and Life Safety Educator,'' the most easily accessible reference book of its kind. Madam Speaker, Marsha Giesler's more than 20 years of excellent public service have demonstrated her commitment to keeping our community safe, and I want to commend Marsha for her leadership, her dedication, and her hard work. ____________________”
