Bonnie’s story relates a
story of her son bringing home a turtle when he was a
child…and shares the fact that the turtle is still alive
while her son is not. Ben died in a fraternity house fire –
on Mother’s Day, on Graduation Day….senseless deaths that
could be prevented with fire sprinklers. Bonnie highlights
her current efforts as an advocate working to challenge the
opposition who work to defeat code requirements that include
fire sprinklers.
State battles are
occurring across our nation, and Bonnie shares that sharing
of the statistics and facts by people who have been directly
affected by fire can make a difference. She encourage you to
get involved and remember that “slow and steady wins the
race.”
