Edmund Sheliga's 50-Year Member Pin

On April 6th, 2019, Grandpa Ed, a nurse, Chris and I headed to Adams Fire Company's Installation Dinner.  It was a special night as Grandpa was being awarded his 50-year membership pin.  The firemen pooled together the money to pay for a wheelchair transport and the nursing home cleaned him up, polished his hat, and sent a nurse free of charge to the special event.

He sincerely thanked me for bringing him and when it was time for him to be awarded, he stood up out of his wheelchair.  He was mostly well behaved except for one joke: John D. asked him how he was holding up.  He responded that he was holding his own as no one else would hold it for him!!!  Haha!

It was a great night.
