Bravery

Sometimes we use the word Hero a little to loosely. Well in Monticello that is not the case.

Recently we had a house fire in Monticello. Two men performed very bravely. They are Ervin Belton and Justin Eley. These two young men acted in a total unselfish manner. With chance to great harm to themselves, even with possible death these two young men went into the burning house and brought the occupants out to safety.

By the time the Monticello Fire Department got the call the house was fully engaged, (fire was coming out the rooftop.) There is no doubt that if these two young men had not acted when they had the occupants of the house would have in all probability died. It's nice to know we still have people who are up to the task of putting others first.

Ervin and Justin, you are Hometown Heroes.
