CITATION

 

Be it hereby known to all that the

Somerville Board of Aldermen

Offers its sincerest commendations to

 

Kaleigh Kosta

 

A first grader at the Brown School, who used the

Student Awareness Fire Education training she had

received from the Fire Department when her own family’s

home was jeopardized by fire. She stayed calm in a stressful situation, directed her mother to call 911, and led her family to

the meeting place they had designated following the training.

 

The entire Membership applauds her heroism, and

Offers its best wishes for ongoing success in all endeavors.

 

Offered this 14th day of July, 2011.
