Neil Smith Contributed $400 to Colin's PTSDFireRide for First Responders

Oct 8, 2015

This donation is from the Vancouver Firefighters that participated in the Retro Rocket Bike Ride. A special thanks to Randy Minton, who donated the $200 he won in the 50/50 back to Jack Russel's ride for PTSD.

To Neil and all participants of the Retro Rocket. Unfortunately, on the day, i was committed to an Honour Guard function, which had been set before the ride. otherwise i most definitely would have attended. i have heard that your day was great, and much fun had by All.
It was a wonderful surprise to see the donation given for the PTSD campaign.
I am touched deeply by this show of support. Special thanks to Randy Minton for his most generous gesture. Just one more reason why the members of the Fire Department are held in such high esteem, and our profession is the greatest fraternity on earth to be a part of. RIDE TO LIVE….thanks for all that you give…..day after day after day!!! jr

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder can kill. I'm riding to the Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial in Colorado Springs to raise money for a pioneering program at Vancouver General Hospital to help firefighters, paramedics and police officers cope with PTSD.
