Greg was a true hero, for this City and Country. In 2010, he rescued a civilian in a fire (http://www.nydailynews.com/…/firefighters-save-choking-smok…). Word of his illness came out of nowhere and kicked in fast. On November 6th, 2014, his brother firefighters put together a fundraiser at Mulcahy's on Long Island. NY...

I see a bunch of people have bought our app. How is it going so far? Any problems/suggestions? Recently I added to the history, "Dalmatians" and added some Gordon Bennett medal winners. It takes time to gather the information then put it in but we're getting there.
