A small rural Fire department in North Idaho has only four full-time members, a chief, and an office manager.
He was working hard trying to provide a service to his community but felt he was failing and didn\'t understand why, not until a small group of local citizens contacted the state attorney-general who sent-with Chief Keeting\'s approval-an undercover firefighter to try to resolve the problems did Chief Keeting start feeling he was getting his head above water..
However, the recent incidents kept dredging up those old memories.
His faith in God finally pulled him through but on a different course-that of becoming a firefighter and EMT.
He was just out of engineering college and was about to land a very lucrative engineering job in New Mexico when tragedy struck.
Chief Keeting had seen plenty of that in California, including loss of his own new wife and unborn child when his house burned down while he was gone on a job interview.
Malfunctioning equipment and insufficient funds to conduct the repairs started resulting in loss of buildings and loss of life.
The chief is relatively new, anticipating this Fire district would operate at a much slower pace than the one he came from in southern California, but he was sadly mistaken.
The district relies heavily on volunteers to provide a proper service to the rural community.
