Oliver Fry
Firefighter
Oliver is the youngest of six firefighters in the family. He's been doing it for twenty years. He says it's been a bit more difficult these days; they have had to do things a little differently in the fire station. He says he's not afraid of getting COVID but is concerned about giving it to his family or friends. He hasn't seen his 92-year old mother in four or five months. Oliver's sister Kathy Sanchez, a retired educator, is the smartest person Oliver knows. She taught elementary and middle school.
