Mr. DeAngelis Mocks Fire Pole Dedicated To Dr. Arnold


"Why the hell would we spend two grand on such a pole in a one

story building?"

"The Chief payed $2000.00 of the money the town gave him from the 

Westover money for a pole. That's right, a pole, one of these HERE. We 
don't know why somebody would put a sliding pole in a one story 
building. There are poles and there are Poles.
HERE"


    "You know there blowing smoke at you when they cry about copying 

some financial documents but somehow they can't explain expenditures for 

brass poles, catering services, knit hats, party rentals, polo shirts,propane, 

soda, beer, Bobcat, etc. Stop crying and give the public the figures."

-------------------------------------------------------------


All the above come from a Westover GIFT, not taxpayer money.  Since the Westover account is a “gift” and not Taxpayer money does it need to be explained?  If I receive a gift from my parents for Christmas, should I explain it to Mr. DeAngelis?? If I don’t explain it to Mr. DeAngelis, am I hiding something?  I don’t think so.


If Mr. DeAngelis is that anxious for the Fire Department to explain why they erected a fire pole in their firehouse when there is not even a second floor, we would then have to explain to him that the fire pole was put into place to honor Dr. William P. Arnold Jr. who unselfishly served the Town of Middlebury since 1953.  The man who rode to medical calls by horseback during snow storms. A kind, gentle man with a heart of gold who practiced in Town for 50 years. He is the salt of the earth.  His true loves are horses, cowboys, and the Middlebury Volunteer Fire Department.  The Department erected the pole and hung a plaque in that location to honor this fine man.   Any other questions about the pole???


There seems to be no end to who Mr. DeAngelis targets. He is now mocking the honor of an 84 year old Town icon. The Fire Department has a great deal of respect, love, and admiration for Dr. Arnold, and we do not appreciate you attacking an area in the Firehouse we created in his honor.


How many fire poles could the MVFD purchase from Taxpayer money (not gift) Mr. DeAngelis has wasted with his FOIs?

DeAngelis is such a loser! He lurks around town and pisses all over those things that his warped senile brain doesn't understand.

Get a life!

If someone feels that the pole in the fire house was a waste of money then they do not understand what it means to be respectful to our elders in the community. Dr. Arnold gave of himself unconditionally and he gave to hte fire department without reservation. The pole is a way for the fire department to pay homage to a great man who has always been there for the community.
