Oct. 14 1996 —–April 7 2000
HERE IS NIPPY THE HERO OF OUR STORY.
NIPPY THE MASCOT OF THE LOCAL FIRE STATION
SLEEPS IN A BOX UNDER THE ALARM BELL.
ONE NIGHT IN 1998 THE BELL RANG,THE FIREMEN RUSHED TO THE
FIRE-ENGINE BUT THE FIRST TO ABOARD IS OUR HERO NIPPY.
WHEN THEY REACHED THE FIRE THE FIREMEN CONNECTED UP THE HOSES
AND TURNED ON THE WATER SO THEY COULD PUT OUT THE FIRE.
NIPPY RAN TO AND FRO WATCHING THAT ALL THE HOSES WERE WORKING
PROPERLY. ONE HOSE HAD A HOLE IN IT AND NIPPY BARKED UNTIL I SAW
THE HOLE AND THE FOUNTAIN OF WATER.
QUICKLY I CONNECTED ANOTHER HOSE SO MUCH MORE WATER WENT
ONTO THE FIRE. GREAT CLOUDS OF STEAM AND SMOKE AND FIRE ROSE
INTO THE SKY AS THE FIREMEN WORKED TO PUT OUT THE FIRE.
SOON THE WATER REDUCED THE FIRE AT THE FRONT OF THE TOY SHOP
AND VERY CAREFULLY NIPPY DARTED INSIDE.
A LARGE CROWD HAD GATHERED TO SEE THE FIRE AND THEY CHEERED
WHEN NIPPY APPEARED WITH THE BASKET AND FIVE KITTENS.
ON 4-07-2000 NIPPY PASSED AWAY ,
WE ALL MISS YOU NIPPY,
LOVE FROM
ALL OF US .
