I was at the South Byron
I was at the South Byron firehall until almost 4pm doing paperwork. I left there to come up to the bank in Batavia, and as I was sitting at the teller window my mom called me. We live on on Freeman Road, so the first thing she asked me was "are you alright!?" I told her to check on here for details...sure enough, you guys had it covered!
Keep up the good work!
